About A Hyacinth is any plant of genus Hyacinthus, which are bulbous herbs formerly placed in the lily family Liliaceae but now regarded as the type genus of the separate family Hyacinthaceae. Hyacinths are native to the eastern Mediterranean region east to Iran and Turkmenistan.
Hyacinths are sometimes associated with rebirth. The Hyacinth flower is used in the Haftseen table setting for the Persian New Year celebration Norouz held during the Spring Equinox.

The Dutch, or Common Hyacinth of house and garden culture (H. orientalis, native to southwest Asia) was so popular in the 18th century that over 2,000 cultivars were cultivated in the Netherlands, its chief commercial producer. This hyacinth has a single dense spike of fragrant flowers in shades of red, blue, white, orange, pink, violet, or yellow. A form of the common hyacinth is the less hardy and smaller blue- or white-petalled Roman hyacinth of florists. These flowers should have indirect sunlight and are to be moderately watered.

For all the girls of UF, there should be enough for all:))
Hope these spring Hyacints will make you happy for the day!!

Wishing you a colourful day, Jenxx

Loll lolll...there was no plastic sheeting, you mean the green or the white?? Those were all flowers....but I agree cropping could have made it better, and you know you can be super critical, go ahead:)
I'll just pick back my dear friend;)))
big hug, Jenxx

A superb shot........... if i wanted to be super critical i would suggest cropping the plastic sheeting in the top right out of the picture as it looks burntout............. but that is only being very nit picking!
Great as usual xx

Thank you dear Visar, for your honest comment,
I didnt sharpen it but it might have been overcoloured as it was foggy and the colours seemed so dull, as they were not for real dull at all!!
I have some close ones, which look better, had to choose and wanted to start with this one:)
Sorry for the bad quality! Be well, Jenxx

apart for all the neatness that we see in this lovely composition; beautiful colours and tones, well adjusted lines- i think that you have oversharpened it. Having smooth tones i think would be better fitting to this image.
thanks,
v.
