May I enquire just what is a "Lent Lily"? (And how do you know they're Lilly's? Sings "My old man's a dustman")

Use a pack of mixed seeds with different colours and sizes. Years ago, I didnt know much about flowers but i did that one year and the result was amazing!

Very good if you get a good batch, I bought a variety pack of hyacinth bulbs one year, and they were all yellow bar one. Nothing wrong with yellow hyacinth, but all of them? :(

What a disappointment. But, as you say, hyacinths are hyacinths.

X-ray vision is what I need, so that I could check inside the box before buying anything.
