This is a cracking daffodil, which is really quite unusual. It has large flowers, that top the upright stems, and these flowers are made up of a creamy peach outer ring, and a flattened cup with ruffled peach-coloured segments. All in all it looks quite extraordinary, and it's something different for the spring border. - Garden care: Plant 10-15cm (4-6in) deep from late summer to early autumn. After flowering feed with a balanced fertiliser, deadhead and allow the leaves to die back naturally.
- Humans/Pets: Harmful if eaten; skin irritant
