Description
WHITE DAFFODIL BULBS - Narcissus Mount Hood is a stunning classic heirloom daffodil perennial that produces large off white petals with a creamy yellow frilly trumpet and can grow up to 45 cm in height. These pretty award winning Spring flowers loved by pollinating insects, in particular bees and butterflies appear from March to April. When planted en masse, they create a carpet of colour wherever planted and come back better each year.HOW TO PLANT NARCISSUS - Plant these narcissus bulbs during Autumn to Winter in fertile, well draining soil in full sun or in partial shade approximately 10 cm apart and at a depth, three to four times the size of the bulb. After planting, water well. Adding mulch, wood chips and organic matter to the planting area will increase soil drainage. After flowering, allow the foliage to die down completely. They are UK hardy and will continue to grow each year with little maintenance.PLANTING POSITION - These bulbs are great for growing in flower beds and garden borders, in patio pots or round the base of trees. They are particularly popular for use in woodland gardens or rock gardens. Narcissus Mount Hood are popular due to their simplicity and are popular for contrast with more colourful Spring flowering bulbs such as yellow daffodils, grape hyacinth and crocus. Narcissus can also be used as cut flowers allowing you to enjoy them in your home and garden.EASY TO STORE - If you are not ready to plant bulbs now, then store them in a cool, dry, frost free, well ventilated location. A garage, shed, loft or cupboard are ideal. Open the paper bag to allow air to circulate round but leave the bulbs in their bags until ready to plant. Just make sure mice or other rodents can’t get access to them. Keep an eye on your bulbs while in storage, if they are showing signs of going soft, it's best to get them planted before they deteriorate any further.
