Hyacinth

I looked for a quote for Hyacinth but did not find one but rather it's definition from Brainy Quote.
"A bulbous plant of the genus Hyacinthus, bearing beautiful spikes of fragrant flowers. H. orientalis is a common variety.
A plant of the genus Camassia (C. Farseri), called also Eastern camass; wild hyacinth.   The name also given to Scilla Peruviana, a Mediterranean plant, one variety of which produces white, and another blue, flowers; -- called also, from a mistake as to its origin, Hyacinth of Peru.   A red variety of zircon, sometimes used as a gem. See Zircon."
