o propagate summer hyacinth (also called Ornithogalum candicans), the most common method is to divide the established plant by separating the smaller offset bulbs from the parent bulb during its dormant period, usually in late winter, and replanting them individually in well-drained soil; this method involves digging up the plant, carefully separating the bulblets, and replanting them at the same depth as the original bulb. 

Key points about propagating summer hyacinth:

  • Best time to divide: Late winter, before new growth begins. 
  • Propagation method: Bulb division, separating smaller offset bulbs from the parent bulb. 
  • Planting the offsets: Plant the separated bulblets at the same depth as the original bulb in well-drained soil.
