Saving bulbs of Hyacinth



Here is a video on how i saved Hyacinth bulbs that flowered in December this year.


 

 Apparently most of the leaves have dried up, so it is the right time for me to store these Hyacinth bulbs. The process is very easy, the only difficulty i faced was holding the camera on one hand while working on hyacinth bulbs with the other. I emptied the pot content on to the news paper and to my surprise i found eight bulblets attached to the main bulb. This was different from my last experience in two ways. Last time i only got one bulb but that was equal to the size of bulb that i bought. This year the bulb is too small but their are so many bulblets. May be i do not have any flowers coming year but year after that i might have eight hyacinth.

I left these Bulbs on a newspaper for a day to let it dry and shifted it to a shoe box and stored in a cool dry place
