Know before you buy
These bulbs should be planted in the fall before the ground freezes. This allows them to establish roots during the cooler months so they are ready to bloom in April.
Yes, these are long-lived perennials. They are designed to naturalize, meaning they will return each spring and multiply over time to create a larger display.
Yes, Narcissus bulbs contain compounds that make them unpalatable to deer and voles. They are an excellent choice if you have had trouble with other bulbs being eaten in your garden.
This collection of 25 bulbs is designed to cover approximately 5 square feet. For the best results, space the bulbs 5 to 6 inches apart.
Absolutely. While they thrive in full sun, they will also perform well in partial shade. Just ensure the location has well-drained soil to prevent the bulbs from rotting.
Maintenance is minimal. Simply allow the foliage to die back naturally after blooming, as this provides the energy the bulb needs to store for next year's growth.
