Know before you buy
These bulbs should be planted in the fall. This allows them to establish their root systems before the ground freezes, ensuring they are ready to bloom in mid-spring.
Yes, White Lion daffodils contain natural compounds that make them unpalatable to deer, rabbits, and squirrels. They are an excellent choice for gardens where wildlife pressure is a concern.
Absolutely. Their upright, clumping habit makes them well-suited for containers. Just ensure your pot has good drainage and is deep enough to accommodate the 6-inch planting depth.
While they thrive in full sun, they are versatile enough to perform well in partial shade. Keep in mind that more sunlight generally leads to more robust blooms.
Plant each bulb 6 inches deep to protect them from temperature fluctuations. Space them 4 to 5 inches apart to allow enough room for the clumping habit to develop properly.
Yes, White Lion is a perennial variety. If planted in the correct hardiness zones (3 through 9) and given proper care, they will return and bloom reliably each spring.
