AJuff Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 I was given a potted hyacinth last Christmas by one of the boys in my class. After it flowered it was put in the utility room and totally forgotten. i was having a good clear out recently and saw it had sprung back into life with a new shoot. Should I feed it or not?

sjp Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 it wouldn't hurt to give it a bit of phostrogen or similar but it might not flower this year or if it does the flower might not be as big as last year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJuff Posted November 24, 2009 Author Share Posted November 24, 2009 Thank you will feed it . . I just didn't want to kill it!!! Will it grow back every year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjp Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 if you feed it after it's flowered and let the leaves die down naturally you might get it to survive a couple of years but the flowers get smaller year on year. I've got a few in the garedn that are about 4 years+ old but the don't flower that good any more as for indoors you're best replacing them every year then put them in the garden personally I won't have them indoors can't abide the sent in the house Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
