Foliage still upright and very green, expecting a CRAZY show next year, very excited, I didn't think most narc. foliage lasted so long, these bulbs will be super happy next year.
Also, it hasn't been said on this page, if keeping them as a cut flower, put them in a vase by themselves for a while before, the cut stems ooze a sap that kills other cut flowers.

I bought 25 of these from KVB wholesale and I couldn't be more pleased. This is a very cheerful daffodil that lasts over 2 weeks. They actually look happy! It does fade as it ages, but that doesn't detract from its appearance. It blends in nicely with other spring blooming bulbs.

Petals are creamy-white, while the corona opens yellow and fades to white. These sturdy narcissus are prolific and naturalize very well even in the deep woods.
Blooms in April in my garden. Big, beautiful blooms. The hearty flowers are nearly white, which makes them stand out when planted amongst ones with more yellow. When planting daffodils, dig a hole three times the depth of the bulb.
Has sweetly scented, 3.25 inch across, white perianths with a wide, frilled, yellow corona. The cups fade to white as the flower ages but it retains it's scent.
Flowers March - April
Loves a well-drained soil in sun or partial shade and clumps well in these conditions.
