Double Daffodil Flower Parade
N0270
Description
Double Daffodil ‘Flower Parade’ produces large fully double blooms in soft creamy-yellow shades with richly ruffled orange centres, creating a vibrant and luxurious spring display. The layered flowers of double daffodil ‘Flower Parade’ are carried on sturdy upright stems, bringing excellent structure and long-lasting colour to borders, containers, and seasonal bedding schemes.
Bold yet beautifully balanced, this eye-catching variety flowers reliably through spring and adds warmth, texture, and classic charm to both formal and informal garden settings.
Care Guide
Plant Daffodil and Narcissi bulbs in autumn, ideally in mid September to early October to enable roots to establish before a period of cold in winter.
A position in full sun or light shade is best and good drainage is essential. Daffodils and Narcissi are long lasting and naturalise well, providing a welcoming display every spring.
Ideal for borders, containers, rock gardens and open grass.
Plant the bulbs 10-20 cm deep and apart, depending on variety. A good rule of thumb is to plant bulbs 2-3 times their depth.
Flowers appear in March and April and should be deadheaded once faded. The foliage should be left to turn yellow and fade naturally on the plant as this helps to feed the bulbs for next year’s blooms.

Miami
M5034
A fabulous, late-flowering Allium, ‘Miami’ produces striking blooms in deep, rich purple throughout July - perfect for extending the joyous ornamental Allium season. The unusual flowerheads form an umbellifer shape, as opposed to the regular Allium ‘globes’ more often seen in early summer gardens.
Popular for cutting, thanks to its eye-catching looks and long-lasting quality, eye-catching allium Miami produces long stems up to 80cm tall.
Plant the bubs towards the centre or back of a large border, in clusters for best effect. For a harmonious look, plant next to Allium ‘Angulosum’ and purple-toned summer perennials such as Salvias, Perovskia and Lavender.
