This large cupped narcissus boasts pure white petals that gracefully frame a flamboyant orange-red trumpet adorned with delicate fringes. Beyond its cinematic beauty, 'June Allyson' proves its versatility as an excellent cut flower, perfect for adding a touch of glamour to any floral arrangement. Named after the iconic actress celebrated for her girl-next-door charm in the early 1950's, this show-stopping daffodil promises to captivate gardeners with its timeless elegance and resilience to deer and rabbits.
Wearing gloves, plant bulbs 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.
