How to Grow and Care for Grape hyacinth

Grape hyacinth, also known as Armenian grape hyacinth, Garden grape-hyacinth, Bluebell, Blue spike, Baby's breath

Grape hyacinth is known for its resilience and low maintenance requirements, making it an easy-care plant ideal for gardeners of all levels. Two critical care points for grape hyacinth include ensuring well-draining soil to prevent bulb rot and providing full to partial sunlight for optimal growth. After blooming, it's important to allow the foliage to die back naturally, as this helps the plant to store energy for the next growing season.

Grape hyacinth is a diminutive perennial reaching a height of approximately 6 inches (15 cm). This plant's striking feature is a clustered spire of bell-shaped flowers, each one a rich, deep violet-blue. The inflorescence bears a strong resemblance to a tight, inverted cluster of grapes and gives off a mild fragrance. The flowers are densely packed, making the flower head particularly conspicuous during bloom.
