Description

Known as one of the prettiest of the daffodils, Narcissus ‘Thalia’ is an eye-catching addition to any springtime garden. Also known as ‘Angel’s Tears’, this is a multi-headed trumpet daffodil, which will flower into a wonderful green-white colour, before maturing to a bright creamy-white as they open, contrasting so well against the dark green foliage.

For maximum impact, plant in groups of up to 10, in either full sun or semi-shade, on their own or with other spring-flowering bulbs of different colours.

Supplied as a pack of 20 bulbs for planting in the autumn.

Top Tips

For a natural look, throw a handful onto a grassy area and plant them where they fall.

Which way up? Usually pointy end up, but if you are not sure, plant the bulb on its side and it will right itself.

Add mycorrhizal fungi to the roots before planting to encourage faster and more reliable establishment.

Propagate by removing offsets in the early summer to populate new areas.

 

Care Information

Planting advice for your Narcissus bulbs:

  • Plant 10-15cm deep and 10cm apart in sun or partial shade, in well-drained, fertile soil.
  • Spring-flowering bulbs should be planted in the autumn for displays next season. This allows them to establish a good root system before the weather becomes too cold.
  • Please check the bag for any additional planting instructions.
  • Use a good-quality potting compost such as our premium professional compost for the best results.
  • The bulbs are fine to plant even if a little green growth is showing; they will just need a good watering when you plant them, and thereafter only when the soil is dry.
  • Plant in herbaceous borders, in pots, or in the ground to naturalise.

Aftercare advice for your Narcissus bulbs:

  • Water frequently and if in pots, ensure that the compost doesn't dry out.
  • While all the energy that a bulb needs in order to grow is stored in the bulb itself, they will do better if you feed them when in active green growth.
  • Leave foliage to die back naturally after flowering; never tie up the foliage or cut it back while still green. This allows as much energy as possible to go back into the bulbs for the following year.
  • Leave them in the ground once they die back and they will come back with bigger and better displays each year.
