“Fondant” is a colourful variety of Hyacinth that features bright pink flowers. The showy and fragrant blooms are borne off a sturdy stem that can rise to 25 cm tall during early spring. The flowers are complemented with dark green foliage. This perennial typically grows to 15 cm tall and 10-15 cm wide, performing best when positioned in full sun on a well-drained site. It is tolerant of short periods of dry, frost, cool climates, and will die back during these times to regrow when conditions start to warm. “Fondant” is commonly included in cottage gardens, planted around outdoor living areas, used in border plantings, or maintained in a container and brought indoors. A mass planting is a must with this variety with bulbs spaced 10 cm apart and planted 8-10 cm deep.
