Small but perfectly formed
Daffodils aren't just for March. You can enjoy their cheerful yellow trumpets in your garden from January until May if you plan cleverly. We have a fantastic choice available seasonally in our Stocksfield garden centre to help you do just that. Our range varies annually, but here are some varieties to look out for.
Early to rise:
'Rijnveld's Early Sensation': in flower by Christmas some years. Brilliant yellow and 35cm tall
'February Gold': does what it says on the tin: this pure yellow gem reaches just 15cm in late February
'Tete a Tete': one of the best miniatures, flowering prolifically with golden swept-back petals. About 15cm
Mid-season marvels:
Tenby daffodil (Narcissus obvallaris): Wordsworth's golden daffodil: small and dainty at 25cm
'Rip Van Winkle': miniature double with a mane of green-tinged, spiky petals. To 15cm
'Jenny' is a mid-sized daffodil at 25cm, with a pale butterscotch trumpet and swept-back, creamy petals
Late and lovely:
'Dutch Master': brilliant golden trumpets and a delicate scent, growing to 45cm tall
'Cheerfulness' is a double with three or four scented blooms on each stem: 45cm
Pheasant's eye daffodil (Narcissus poeticus var. recurvus): among the last to flower, these delicate white daffs are also scented: 40cm tall
Please ask the staff in our garden centre in Stocksfield for more information and advice about choosing daffodils for a long display.
