Description
Design With Daffodils…Pretty, Not Tasty
It's always frustrating when you find a little critter has stopped by your garden for a midnight snack. If you're trying to make a beautiful display in a garden that's a hotspot for hungry animals, daffodils may be the perfect solution-deer, rabbits and squirrels generally avoid them.
Timing is Everything
Daffodils are a well-known symbol of spring, hope and renewal, because of the way they light up the landscape after winter is finally through. With a daffodil collection, you can enjoy this effect for even longer, which we kept in mind while creating the Most Fragrant Daffodil Collection. Spring Cheer™ Daffodil arrives first as a sign of blooms to come, then all through mid spring, the rest of the collection will begin to appear. Quail Daffodil will stay bright and vibrant for the majority of mid to late spring and end in a duet with Original Poet's Daffodil in late spring. This range of bloom times ensures you have a well-balanced and long-lasting display.
Southern Belles
Mainly, daffodils are considered to be best for Northern gardens, thanks to their love of cooler weather. But the beauties in this collection are perfectly happy in Southern gardens, growing vigorously all the way downto zone 8.
Where to Grow
The perfect flower for naturalizing, daffodil blooms look best in abundance. Not only does this collection include 50 high-quality bulbs, but most of the varieties produce more than one flower per stem-to ensure that wherever you plant them, your display is completely filled with cheery blooms. Daffodils are also great company in your perennial garden beds, as they deter rodents. And of course, be sure to take advantage of their delightful fragrance. You can plant them close to the house so you can open your windows to perfumed breezes, or line a path to make your garden strolls delightful.
Make This Spring Sensational!
When these perfumed blooms begin to appear, there'll be no doubt that spring is in the air! Fragrant daffodils can range from delicate and subtle to tantalizingly sweet. To make sure you get the full effect this spring, we've filled this collection with our most fragrant favourites-with scents even stronger than peonies! You can smell their perfume lingering on spring breezes, even from a distance. However, our suggestion is to place them closer to your home, giving you the best opportunity to breathe it all in.
