The answerers are correct to a point.


Hyacinths are bulbs but you'll still have to provide the right conditions for them to bloom again.


Read up and happy gardening!

hyacinth's are bulbs. they only bloom once a year for about a month.





after that they are done till next year.





put teh bulb about 3 inches underground. it will be back next March.
Reply:They also do better on the north side of your house. You should plant it outside because they grow to be a very beautiful fairly large bush with many blooms.
