Perfumed Daffodil Collection

With this collection, you can give your garden the natural charm of this small narcissus with its sweet fragrance. From April to May, they will brighten borders, flower beds, rockeries, and planters with a myriad of white flowers with yellow or orange hearts. They are so simple and endearing and spread easily if the conditions suit them.

The collection of scented narcissus consists of the following:

- 10x Narcissus tazetta 'Avalanche' is an old variety that is vigorous and resistant to viruses. It is highly prized for the musky fragrance of its small white and light yellow bicoloured flowers, gathered in bouquets on a tall stem. In mild climates, it blooms from the end of March, a little later in cooler climates. It is 45 cm tall.

- 10x Narcissus 'Flower Record': an excellent, prolific, and reliable narcissus dating back to the 1940s. Its large flowers, white with a bright yellow flared crown bordered with orange, are slightly fragrant. A plant that spreads easily. Blooms in April-May, depending on the climate. Height 45 cm.

- 10x Narcissus poeticus Actaea: a botanical species called Poet's Narcissus, highly fragrant. The simple and elegant flowers are white, with a small yellow crown edged in red—blooms from April to May, height 50 cm.

Plant this collection of narcissus in any well-drained, loosened, humus-rich soil; however, the results are less favourable in soils that are too wet or excessively acidic in summer. They will be home in natural-looking flower beds or borders, combined with scillas and hyacinths, mid-height botanical tulips, and forget-me-nots or pansies. Plant them under trees where no one will disturb them: they will spread, forming large luminous carpets in the long run! For a romantic effect, plant them at the base of old roses. In large pots, these narcissi are wonderful... place them near windows or the entrance door to fully enjoy their delightful fragrance.

These narcissi are also perfect for creating charming bouquets. Be careful, though. Narcissus stems contain a substance that quickly wilts other flowers. You can mitigate this harmful effect by dipping the ends of the narcissus stems in hot water for 1 to 2 minutes. Furthermore, if your tulips open too quickly, you can add two to three ice cubes to the vase every day. Use very little water—just a bottom is enough!
