Narcissus 'Pastorale'
large cupped daffodil bulbs
A truly remarkable mid season narcissus with an elegant combination of off white petals and a buttercream coloured cup, lightly scented, that contrasts beautifully with other yellow and white daffodils. Robust and weather resistant, as well as unappetising for deer and rabbits, this naturalising herald of spring is equally at home in woodland or herbaceous borders, and patio pots where its sturdy blooms can be enjoyed indoors in a long-live cut flower display.
