I wish you could smell it. It smells amazing -- perfumes the entire first floor of our house. It came from the supermarket, but this winter I swear I'm going to stick a few bulbs in the fridge so I can force them in January.
My husband got me one for Valentines and it is incredible the aroma these little blossoms project. I think you have inspired me to attempt some myself.
I love hyacinths too. Our city planted rows of purple hyacinth in the meridians at the stop lights. I can smell them, even through a closed window. Lovely.
You've given me the idea to try forcing hyacinths next year, too. I used to do paperwhites, they were so easy, but they are also one of the few flowers that bother my nose, so I quit.

Stunning color and detail. Nice to see flowers..isn't it???
Hyacinths smell simply divine!! And I love the colours on this one, too! I agree with you, though, about forcing some bulbs in the winter!!
a lovely capture...the color is heavenly.
I can smell it - it is incredible! Every day I sneak over here for my daily fix of luscious flower heaven. And I so seldom say thank you.
But thank you. Even on those days when I just peek and run!

I'm alway happy to see your photos.
Hyacinths are one of my favorite bulbs to force.

I too love hyacinths and their fragrance is intoxicating. I'm going to pick one up on my next trip to the city! It's settled
Incredibly beautiful! This takes my breath away.
