Grape hyacinth trimming tips needed

Hello All,

I've got quite a few of the above which have died back. How far do I trim them down to? 

Many thanks.

    You wait until the leaves have all turned brown, then you can remove them without damaging the prospect of flowers next year.

  • Thanks Dove! Do I trim them right down then? Sorry, not sure.

    When the leaves have gone brown a gentle tug will remove them from where they join the bulb.  image
