Earlier I use to believe Hyacinth cant be grown as perennial but my experience made me think other way, two years back I brought some Hyacinth from UK, they bloomed and went dormant as per normal life cycle, I took them out of soil and found few bulblets too, treated them with fungicide and anti-rotting and saved them like other bulbs, following September I planted them, not only they bloomed but to my amazement bulbets also bloomed, pics could be found on Gardening Pakistan Face book page.

Re: Gardening Efforts
Lucky you !
Hyacinths never seem happy when I tried them, very low temperatures like Muree could be a better place to use them as perennials. The flower kept on diminishing, but the new ones are always promising. This is a difficult plant, needs a lot of motivation to stick with it in the long term.
