Dear all; As the hyacinths are looking past their peak, I got to wondering- dangerous, I know. Does anyone grow the species instead of these gaudy cultivars? I have a few brightly colored cvs and the 'multi-scaped' forms, but their colors really are pretty shocking compared to the pastels of spring. I assume the few wild species are more subdued, possibly more difficult to grow(?) and less available. Appreciate comments, suggests and sources. Thanks Jim W. -- Dr. James W.
