How to deal with hyacinth bulbs after flowering

The colors of hyacinth flowers are all beautiful. In fact, no matter which type of hyacinth, it can bloom again. Although the flowers in the second year are not as big as the first year, and the pistil is not as high, it is still very beautiful.

First, let’s talk about hydroponic hyacinths and how to deal with them after they bloom.

If it is hydroponically grown, first cut off the flowers after they have bloomed, then take the hyacinth bulbs out of the hydroponic container. If there are yellow leaves, you can also cut them off, then let the water on them dry. After drying, you can bury it in the flowerpot.

In fact, if you don’t have an empty flower pot, you can bury it in some pots that contain other plants and ignore it.

We can also put it in a pot filled with sand on the terrace. As long as there is no water in the pot, it is okay to water it occasionally. If you throw it in a corner, it will continue to bloom next year.

Second, let’s talk about some soil-grown hyacinths and how to deal with them after the flowering period.

It is easier to handle soil-grown hyacinths after the flowering period. We only need to cut off the withered flowers, and there is no need to dig out the bulbs. We can directly place them together with the flowerpots on the balcony terrace.

However, don't just ignore it all the time. When you remember, water it a little bit to prevent water from accumulating in the pot for a long time.

Just place it on the balcony or terrace like this, and when winter comes , it will start to sprout, grow leaves, and then bloom. There is no need to wait, it will bloom normally, which is really a surprise .

After hyacinths bloom, if you store the bulbs like this, they will bloom again next year and be even more beautiful!
