Spring Flowering Bulbs

Daffodils
|
Most daffodils are
very drought hardy. They do not need to be watered
during summer and early autumn; preferring their
moisture from May to October.
The number (in brackets), after the name of the daffodil indicates the relative time of flowering. Number 0 being the earliest - around June: and 6 the latest - in October. We do recommend that people who live in areas which experience a constant dry late spring, purchase daffodils that are coded between 0-3 and any of the jonquils listed on this page. Stock listed in this catalogue is
available until mid-April unless otherwise
stated or sold out. Please advise substitutes in
case an item becomes unavailable.
As a further matter of interest: Daffseek is an interesting website for those who are very keen on Daffodils. It has a search engine that allows you to type in the name of a variety, in most cases this comes up with photos and a full description of the flower. Visit their site on
