Double Daffodil Tahiti
N0280
Description
Narcissus ‘Tahiti’, with its large double blooms in mouth-watering tropical shades is a true gardening gem and favourite of florists for the spring vase. Layers of sunshine-yellow petals and mandarin-orange crinkled segments gather together to form the eye-catching flowers – an arresting sight when planted in large groups in the garden, which will of course provide plenty to spare for picking.
Narcissus ‘Tahiti’ is a recipient of the coveted Award of Garden Merit from the RHS.
The bulbs are excellent for naturalising and produce stems which are long, strong, and sturdy, performing well on exposed sites in all weathers.
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 10-20cm 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.
