Hyacinth Low Blooming

Question

My hyacinths have been planted for over 5 years and they never seem to get a full bloom. What can I do, or what am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

Hyacinth can sometimes be difficult to get to bloom from year to year. Try adding some bone meal to the soil to add phosphorous, which they need for blooming, and make sure that the leaves are left on until they turn yellow, as this is how the plant gets energy to bloom for next year.
