There are few flowers more iconic or glorious than Hyacinths: they are the art, soul and fragrance of spring. Known to be deer- and rodent-resistant, they are much loved by happily bumbling bees and helpful pollinators. The original species, Hyacinthus orientalis, was found in the wild of the eastern Mediterranean around 1562. The sweet perfume and colorful rainbow of Hyacinthus orientalis has filled the finest of gardens since 1850 or so when the Dutch began extensive hybridization.
