Why We Love It

‘Woodstock’ is a hyacinth that brings drama and luxury to spring planting schemes. Its velvety, jewel-toned blooms contrast beautifully with softer spring pastels and look especially striking when planted in pots by the front door or patio, where their fragrance can be enjoyed up close.

It’s also excellent for indoor forcing, filling rooms with its heady perfume. As a cut flower, it holds well in arrangements, making it as versatile as it is beautiful.
