Narcissus 'Canaliculatus'
tazetta daffodil bulbs
Plant this at the front of your border, in a pot or in your windowboxes where you can enjoy the small, scented flowers up close. Narcissus 'Canaliculatus' produces several flowers on each stem so they are really colourful. The flowers have white petals with a small yellow cup and they look best in bold clumps.
How to care for Narcissus Canaliculatus:
Wearing gloves plant bulbs 10-15cm (4-6in) deep and 10cm (4in) apart in autumn. After flowering feed with a balanced fertiliser, deadhead the flowers, but do not be tempted to cut back or tidy the foliage after flowering as this will interfere with the bulbs’ ability to store energy for the following year's flowers.
