Hyacinths are a bulb that is planted in the fall, blooms in the spring and comes in almost every color except for orange.

They have very fragrant flowers and look great planted in masses in the garden.

Like most spring-blooming bulbs, the leaves will die back after the plant has finished blooming so you will want to plant something else in the same location to cover the bare spot.
