Hyacinthus orientalis, Linn. Common Hyacinth. Fig. 1926. Lvs. 8-12 in. long, ½ - 1 ½ in. wide, thick and green: scape 8-18 in. tall, stout, bearing an elongated and dense raceme: perianth about 1 in. long, the tube usually ventricose or swollen, the lobes oblong-spatulate, as long as the tube, in many colors, often double in cult. B.M. 937. B.R. 995. F.S. 23:2399-2400.—The hyacinth has been cult, for some centuries, and it shared some of the early popularity of the tulip in the Netherlands. It is wild in Syria, Asia Minor, Greece and Dalmatia. It is extensively grown in Holland for export to this and other countries, and consequently is commonly- known as the Dutch hyacinth. The Roman hyacinth (Figs. 1927, 1928) belongs to the group represented by var. albulus, Baker (H. dlbulus, Jord.) and var. praecox, Voss (H. praecox, Jord.). These are slender plants with narrow erect lvs., fls. fewer and earlier, white to blush to blue, the tube more slender. Var. praecox differs from var. albulus in its yellow anthers, rather more ventricose tube and stouter growth. The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
