Product Description
Narcissus Obvallaris is one of the original native Daffodils of Britain which was referred to by the famous poet William Wordsworth. This must not be confused with the giant headed hybrids we have grown used to. Daffodil Obvallaris (Tenby) is much smaller, reaching only a height of 30 cm. It is lemon yellow in colour and it can be left to naturalise as it has done in Britain for hundreds of years. A real must have for any garden that can be planted in patio containers, rockeries or garden borders. 10cm+ bulbs supplied.

Growing at a glance…
Daffodils (or narcissi) are both easy to grow and incredibly reliable. Like many bulbs, it takes very little time to plant them. Remove any weeds in the area you'd like to plant your bulbs and dig at the soil to aerate it. Fork in some organic matter to improve the drainage and soil structure. Daffodils prefer sunny spots and well-drained soil, so keep this in mind when planting. Plant each bulb 2-3 times the bulbs height and place it with the shoot facing upwards. Space them twice their width apart. Cover with soil and water if the ground is dry.
