A recipient of the RHS Award of Garden Merit, the Hyacinth “City of Haarlem” flourishes in full sun or partial shade, showcasing soft yellow blooms. Blooming from early to mid-spring, its intensely fragrant flowers attract butterflies, making it a stunning addition to gardens or containers. Dating back to 1893, this heirloom variety is also a practical choice, thanks to its natural resistance to deer and rabbits. Growing 10-12 inches tall, the Hyacinth “City of Haarlem” brightens any space, bringing warmth and vibrancy to once dull landscapes.
