Hyacinth Bulbs
16 Jan in Flowers, The Cottage | Comments (4)My first hyacinth bulbs have just started flowering.

I plant hyacinths every year, I love that they are the first little bit of colour you can expect after packing away all the Christmas twinklery.

This year I have some which I haven’t seen before – berry, not quite plum, but darker than one expects from pink. I bought them because I thought that they might match my new cushion covers – and they do!

I had pinned this post of Lilac & Lily’s on my Pinterest board and fiddled around this morning with my basket. Not quite as artfully arranged as hers, but I’m happy with it. Bright green moss and peacock feathers finish it off nicely.
