Is hyacinth a shade-loving or sun-loving plant?

Does hyacinth prefer shade or sun?

Hyacinth is a sun-loving plant. Because light determines the flowering speed of hyacinth, it needs to be placed in a location with sufficient scattered light in daily care. This will make the plant stronger and less likely to grow tall.

Hyacinth basking in the sun

Although hyacinth prefers partial shade, it also needs light. About 3-4 hours of light a day is conducive to the flowering of the plant. The plant can also be given full-sun maintenance during the spring and autumn growing seasons, but it needs appropriate shading in the summer.

Hyacinth is a plant that can be exposed to the sun, but it should not be exposed to excessive sunlight. The branches and leaves of the plant will wither when exposed to strong sunlight, which will seriously affect the growth rate of the hyacinth.

Hyacinthus growth habits

Hyacinth is sun-loving, cold-resistant and afraid of waterlogging. It prefers a cool, dry and semi-shady growing environment. It requires fertile, loose and well-drained soil. The optimal growth temperature is around 25°C.

If hyacinth is grown at home, it is suitable to be placed in a warm environment such as the living room or balcony. Because its fragrance is relatively strong, it is not suitable to be placed in the bedroom or study, which is not conducive to people's rest.
