Yes, if you plant hyacinths in a location they like (well-drained soil, sunny in the spring), they will often return for years. I’ve had some hyacinths return for more than 10 years.

You can also acquire pre-cooled hyacinth bulbs – a bit pricier than the typical kind – at brentandbeckysbulbs.com, but you must plant them immediately or the pre-cooled effect will wear off. 2.
