Hyacinth ‘Gypsy Princess’
Hyacinthus orientalis
Description
Flowers on this sweet variety are the most lovely shade of soft buttercream-yellow, and they mix so well with other spring blooms. There is a bit of distance between blossoms on each stem, lending an airy quality to this heavenly scented gem. One of our all-time favorite hyacinths.
Please note: When cut, hyacinths ooze a clear sap that can cause skin irritation. Wear gloves when harvesting or wash hands after picking.

Height: 8 to 12 in

Harvesting/Vase Life
If picked when one-third to one-half of the lower blossoms are open, these stems will last for 7 to 10 days in the vase.
