No, ericaceous compost is not suitable for hyacinths, tulips, and tete-a-tete daffodils, as these bulbs prefer alkaline to neutral soil conditions. Ericaceous compost is specifically formulated for acid-loving plants, such as rhododendrons and azaleas. Using it for these bulbs may hinder their growth and flowering potential. It's best to use a well-draining, general-purpose compost or bulb-specific mix for optimal results.
