hyacinth jan bos hyacinthus orientalis
The deep scarlet red flower heads carry an amazing fragrance and look spectacular in formal beds or planted amongst perennial plants. For the most impact plant in small groups. Alternatively plant in containers or tubs.
Combination planting with daffodils or single early tulips certainly looks impressive in formal beds or add with muscari to rose beds.
When you want a deep red hyacinth, Jan Bos is the richest in colour and performs well in landscaped formal beds, general gardens and in public areas in containers.
Interesting Note: Shares the name with a famous speed skater and sprint cyclist who competed as World Champion at both the 1998 and 2002 Winter Olympics.
