Narcissus 'Spring Dawn'
large cupped daffodil bulbs
An exceptionally early flowering variety, that will produce its elegant, bicoloured blooms as early as January. The flowers are very pretty, each with a large soft lemon cup, which is surrounded by a creamy-white perianth (collar). These top stout and short(ish) stems, so they will take poor weather in their stride, and are ideal for pots and windowboxes. 'Spring Dawn' is brilliant for extending the season and providing a much-needed splash of colour in the late winter garden.
How to care for Narcissus Spring Dawn:
Wearing gloves plant bulbs 10-15cm (4-6in) deep and a similar distance apart from late summer to mid-autumn. After flowering feed with a balanced fertiliser, deadhead and allow the leaves to die back naturally.
