A collection of the very best, highly scented, long-flowering narcissi, to fill a vase or jug for week after week through March and April – nearly three months of heaven in your garden and house.
Narcissus – or daffodils – are very tolerant bulbs and we should all grow plenty of them. They give a great performance early in the year and if you choose carefully you can have colour in your garden and highly scented flowers to pick from early March. Unlike many tulips, these get better, and the groups bigger and stronger year after year. You can't go wrong.
This collection contains 5 or 10 bulbs each of:- Narcissus 'Avalanche' – early-flowering
- Narcissus 'Silver Chimes' – perfect ivory multi-headed
- Narcissus 'Actaea' – the classic
- Narcissus 'Geranium' – pretty and fragrant

| Vase Life | Narcissi make great cut flowers lasting up to a week in the vase. I love them jumbled up in large jugs on the table. Be careful mixing with other flower types as their stems give off a compound that is toxic to other flowers and soak their stems in warm water before displaying to stop the 'goo' from running out. |
