Species and varieties

 

Horticultural daffodils are classified according to the shape of their flowers, which can be double, trumpet-shaped, like small cups, etc…


The Barrett Browning narcissus is one small cup narcissus also known as N. poeticus. The Rockall variety belongs to the same group; it is provided with white petals and an almost red cup. The Verona and Polar Ice varieties are all white. N. poeticus has the largest flowers of the same color.

The Berlin variety is the most beautiful of all large cup daffodils with its yellow petals and flat and very curly orange crown. The Ice Follies variety, which is characterized by white petals and a flat lemon yellow crown which becomes pure white, offers a refreshing sight. The Romance variety with its pure white petals and pink crown also brings a nice touch of romance to the garden.

Other daffodils have several flowers per stem. They create a beautiful effect of mass and bloom late in May. Among them, Cheerfulness daffodils can have two or three flowers. They have white petals and a double white and yellow cup. The Geranium variety is provided with three to five white petals contrast beautifully with the bright orange cup. Scarlet Gem daffodils have flowers (between three and five) with bright yellow petals and orange cups. Finally, the Winston Churchill variety has three to five white flowers per stem and an orange crown.

Planting

 

The bulbs must be planted early in September or October to take root before winter. The bulbs should be thrown on the ground and planted wherever they fall in order for the planting to have a natural look.

Associations and uses 

 

Plant them in large groups in front of deciduous shrubs or between perennials. The foliage of the latter will fill the void left by the faded daffodils.

Care 

 

Once they have faded, cut the flowers without touching the foliage, which will turn yellow a month later. The bulbs need their nutrient reserves for the leaves to grow. Leave them in the ground undisturbed for several years for the tufts to grow. Daffodils sometimes flower less after four to five years because the bulbs interfere in the process. In this case, proceed to their division. You can also send flowers cheap as a gift.

Multiplication 

 

Remove the clumps from the ground in July or August. Separate the bulbs and replant them immediately.
