I have some gorgeous Hyacinth bulbs that I planted indoor in a pot late last year. They are sitting on the kitchen window sill. They are in the height of their bloom at the moment and I would love to keep them for next year. How long after they are finished flowering should I remove them from their pots and what is the best way to store them for next year? |

Hi, I would wait until they have died all the way back before taking from the pot. The outside will be dry and flaky. Then store in a brown paper bag in a shed or cool dark spot. |
