Delicate hyacinth - a photo of spring itself

Primroses are perhaps the most amazing flowers. Snowdrops, hyacinths. Yes, the same mother-and-stepmother, with their tenderness, talk about how cold nights and bright sunny days they are born. Hyacinth - a photo of spring itself!

These flowers belong to plants about which there are many legends. One of the most famous tells how these flowers appeared on earth. Once upon a time, the ancient Greek god Apollo had a beloved friend - a young man named hyacinth. He was slender and handsome. Apollo and Hyacinth spent a lot of time in various sports. and then one day, throwing a heavy disc, Apollo hit directly at Hyacinth. The young man's blood splattered on the ground and amazingly beautiful flowers sprouted from its drops, which were named after the young man - hyacinths.

Hyacinths will be folded as a symbol of the changing seasons. after all, it is these flowers that wake up with the first days of spring, endowing the awakening nature with their amazing beauty. How many shades are there in these beautiful primroses - from snow white to dark purple. The Sultan, consisting of many graceful flowers, is, as it were, filled with the strength and power of the coming spring. And just like spring, hyacinth flowers are delicate and adorable.

Many gardeners like to grow hyacinths. These plants are undemanding to care for and actively respond to attention and care for themselves, delighting every spring with the arrival of warm days with beautiful flowering.

Hyacinths are bulbous plants. Basically, they are propagated by bulbs, separating the "babies" after ripening. But since very few of them are formed, growers use another method of breeding hyacinths - cutting the bottom. This procedure requires certain knowledge and skills. But on the other hand, it gives amazing results not only in obtaining a large number of small bulbs formed on the cut, but also allows you to rejuvenate the bulb itself, adding strength to it for new growth and flowering.

Good luck!
