How to grow
Narcissus are easy to grow bulbs that reliably flower in gardens year after year. Plant in full sun in a soil enriched with aged compost or decomposed manure. Dig a hole around 20cm deep and backfill to a height twice the depth of the bulbs height. Place several bulbs in a single hole to improve your display leaving at least a bulbs width between each bulb. 10 bulbs per hole will make a stunning feature and also make it easier to avoid accidental injury to the bulb by rogue digging. Backfill, water and mulch. Come late winter, your garden will be a mass of stunning flowers, the perfect herald to the spring.
