large flower; very soft colour, of a celestial blue as its name suggests" Analyse de la traduction : La traduction est correcte sur le plan linguistique. Cependant, il y a une petite erreur dans la formulation de la phrase. Au lieu de dire "of a celestial blue", il serait plus approprié de dire "in a celestial blue". Donc, la phrase corrigée serait : "large flower; very soft colour, in a celestial blue as its name suggests".

Description

The Sky Jacket Hyacinth is a perennial herbaceous plant with an erect tuft, with single flowers of light lavender blue colour, fragrant.

This hyacinth will flourish both in pots and in borders during the months of March / April.

The leaves of this Hyacinthus Orientalis are, on the other hand, deciduous and measure from 15 to 35 cm (6 to 14in) long. Green in color, they are ensate in shape (flat, narrow, long, erect, and pointed). Native to Turkey, Syria, and Lebanon, it is a hyacinth with very good hardiness and can reach a height of 20 to 25 cm (8 to 10in).

 

Our advice: mix your hyacinths with other early bulbs such as chionodoxas or early Tulipa humilis.

Planting and care

Plant in October-November by burying the bulbs 8 to 10 cm (3 to 4in) deep and 15 to 20 cm (6 to 8in) apart. In very harsh climates, cover with litter to protect from extreme cold. Flowering occurs in April-May. After flowering, wait for the leaves to turn yellow and wilt before digging up the bulbs, which will be stored in a dry place until being replanted in the following autumn. The second year's flowering will generally be less beautiful than the first, but still very acceptable for bed decoration. Pot cultivation is possible. Hyacinth Tip: Among early bloomers, hyacinths are one of the few bulbs with large flowers. Reserve a special place for them in your garden. They will bring spectacular splashes of colour to your beds. Our advice: mix your hyacinths with other early bulbs such as chionodoxas or early-flowering Tulips humilis.
