Narcissus 'Mount Hood'
daffodil
Showy, off-white petals and creamy-white trumpets that fade to off-white as they mature, make up the gorgeous flowerheads of this popular daffodil. Making a marvellous, mid-season statement, 'Mount Hood' is considered by many to be one of the best all-white varieties.
How to care for Narcissus Mount Hood:
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.
