Hyacinth Inflorescence

Hyacinthus orientalis L.

The inflorescence of the common hyacinth (Hyacinthus orientalis) is a terminal raceme that is cylindrical or conical in shape. It serves as a key morphological trait in cultivar evaluation, assessed by length, density, and total flower count.

In the reference 51 varieties crop Common hyacinth, where this is mentioned in the description.

To evaluate hyacinth inflorescences during variety testing, indicators such as length in centimeters, flower density, and total flower count—which can exceed 40 units in certain cultivars—are utilized. Visual characteristics of density range from loose racemes to compact inflorescences.

Observations of inflorescences are conducted on representative samples at the full bloom stage. Since inflorescence parameters are determined within the bulb during pre-planting storage, deviations in temperature during this period directly affect the marketability and quality of raceme formation.

General information about the subject — on the page Inflorescence.
