Description
The narcissus ‘Double Beauty’ blooms in mid-spring on 40 cm stems. Its large light yellow and orange corolla displays several rows of imbricate segments around an orange-yellow centre. It faces upwards and emits a sweet fragrance. Planted in groups, this variety stands out in beds and borders. It is superb in containers and spring cut flower arrangements.
This cultivar belongs to the family Amaryllidaceae, like all jonquils and narcissi. It was bred by Karel van der Veek and registered in 2009 by the Dutch company W. van Lierop & Sons. It belongs to the double narcissus group, where the central crown is divided into numerous segments mingled with the tepals. The flower reaches 10 cm in diameter and faces upwards. The outer floral segments, broad and slightly undulate, are light yellow to bright yellow. In the centre, small orange-yellow "petals", shorter and irregularly crisped, give the corolla its full appearance. The whole is pleasantly fragrant. Each scape bears a solitary flower well above the foliage. The plant forms a clump that gradually thickens by the formation of bulblets around the main bulb. The linear, medium green leaves appear at the end of winter and yellow a few weeks after flowering, while the bulb enters summer dormancy. This flowering typically occurs in April and may continue into early May depending on the region and weather conditions. The flowers can be cut when the bud begins to open.
This narcissus 'Double Beauty' is planted in groups of seven to fifteen bulbs along the edge of a path, among perennials that are still low in spring, or in a large container. Its yellow and orange colouring stands out well against green or bronze foliage. In front of the narcissi, you can plant some Muscari aucheri ‘Ocean Magic’ and Scilla siberica ‘Spring Beauty’ which will form a blue carpet. A few Tulipa praestans ‘Shogun’, lower, bloom in orange tones at the same time. If the bulbs are planted in a lawn, the first mowing will be done after the foliage has completely yellowed.

Planting and care
Place the Narcissus 'Double Beauty' in full sun or partial shade. Very easy to grow, they adapt well to either partial shade or a sunny border. They prefer moist but well-drained soil. Plant them in autumn, 15 cm deep and spaced 10 cm apart. Group them in clusters of at least 5 bulbs, in patches of uniform colours or as a mix. You can plant them in the lawn. In this case, lift a piece of turf, dig and loosen the soil to at least 20 cm (the depth of a spade). Plant your bulbs, cover with soil and replace the turf. Choose a spot where you will not mow, as it is necessary to allow the daffodil leaves to wither before cutting them. It is at this time that the bulb replenishes itself and prepares the flowers for the following year. On the other hand, remember to cut off the flowers as soon as they have faded to prevent seed formation. This would needlessly exhaust the bulb. Also cut the leaves when they have turned yellow and apply fertiliser at that time, not before. Provide regular watering during the growing season until you allow the soil to dry out once the foliage is mature.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).

In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
