| Care Tips | Dead head flowers and remove faded foliage during mid summer. Allow the leaves to die-back after flowering |
| Flowering | late February - May |
| 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. |
