I never imagined hyacinths could do such things! I have put a reminder in my diary for autumn to buy more, though. Might even try some pink ones. This has been a nice little surprise.
(Never knew bluebells could be anything but blue, either... I'll keep an eye on those when they flower.)
Native common bluebells are blue and not that common anymore as they are not as vigorous as Spanish bluebells which have been introduced and are spreading fast and also hybridising with th enatives so do be careful not t buy or be given the Spanish kind.
Hyacinths come in a wide range of colours now so you can have loads of fun with those.

Thanks, all!

I often see those crossed pink Spanish bluebells [yuk] - white ones as well. Fortunately we still have plenty of native ones.
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
But if you want a name ... it's a hyacynth, poor quality, possibly a planted-out exhausted forced house plant.
