Do Hyacinths Grow in Texas

There are two spring-blooming bulbs that need to be pre-chilled in North Texas: tulips and hyacinths. This is because our winters do not get cold enough to provide the chilling time that these bulbs require to produce spring blooms.

Where does hyacinth grow best?

Where to Plant Hyacinths? Hyacinth bulbs should be planted in a sun to part-sun location that receives at least 6 hours of sun per day. Like most fall-planted bulbs hyacinths are easy to grow; however, they require soil that drains well. If the soil hyacinth bulbs are planted in holds water they may rot over winter.

What zone does hyacinths grow in?

Hardiness Zone: Hyacinths are winter hardy in growing zones 4-8. In warmer climates, the bulbs need to be pre-chilled before planting.
