Care Guide
Plant 10 bulbs 2.5 cm deep in a 15 cm pot.
Once planted the pots need to be put in a cool, dark place, keeping the soil moist. Forcing will take between 12 and 16 weeks or when the shoots are 5 cm to 8 cm high. At this stage the pots should be brought out of cold storage into a cool unheated room. Turn the pots daily in order to keep the stems straight and strong.
When the foliage and buds are well developed move the pots to a bright sunny position. This 2nd stage takes between 3 to 4 weeks.

February Gold
N0391
One of the finest early bloomers, Dwarf Cyclamineus Narcissus ‘February Gold’ has earned itself the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit. You may be lucky enough to spot one or two blooms emerging in February in a sheltered spot, and the cheerful little flowers will proliferate enthusiastically as the season progresses.
Pointed, curved petals of canary yellow emanate from a deeper saffron yellow trumpet with frills at the margin. Plant daffodil 'February Gold' in drifts and fill window boxes and pots by the door to lift the spirits even on a grey day. Kick off the daffodil season in style with these radiant heralds of spring.

First introduced in 1943, daffodil ‘Rijnveld’s Early Sensation’ holds an esteemed Award of Garden Merit from the RHS and will add carpets of colour to a spring garden as they naturalise happily.
