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 the spring.
Yes, Narcissus bulbs contain compounds that make them unpalatable to deer and rabbits. They are a reliable choice if you have frequent wildlife visitors in your garden.
Absolutely. Their 18-inch height makes them well-suited for containers, provided the pot has good drainage. Ensure the container is deep enough to accommodate the bulbs and keep the soil moist but not waterlogged.
They perform best in full sun but will also thrive in partial shade. While they can tolerate some shade, you will get the most vibrant and prolific blooms with at least six hours of direct sunlight.
Yes, Narcissus Delibes are perennials. If planted in the correct hardiness zones (3-8) and provided with proper care, they will return and bloom reliably each spring.
They are excellent as cut flowers. For the longest vase life, cut the stems when the buds are just beginning to show color and place them in fresh water immediately.
