Hyacinths
Hyacinths have fragrant flowers and are outstanding among cold-resistant bulb plants. Their flower spikes are in dense spherical shapes and are brightly colored. For example, blue hyacinths are like the deep ocean, while pink hyacinths are just like a young girl's cheeks. The bulbs of hyacinths can be cultivated in water or in soil. When cultivating them in water, just place the bulbs on the special water-cultivation containers so that the roots touch the water. In this way, we can clearly observe the growth of the roots. When cultivating hyacinths in soil, loose and fertile soil is needed. They accumulate energy in the cold environment in winter and will quickly sprout and bloom when the temperature rises in spring.

Crocuses can not only be used for ornamental purposes but also have certain values in the fields of medicine and spices. Their bulbs are relatively small, so attention should be paid to the depth and distance when planting them. With proper care, they can bring a different kind of scenery to the garden.
