Bulbs

Narcissus 'Geranium'

Geranium Daffodil

Narcissus 'Geranium' bears clusters of creamy white petals surrounding warm orange-red shallow cups, creating fragrant, mid-spring blooms on strong stems. Narrow, dark green, strap-like foliage forms upright clumps that support multiple flowers per stem and provide a fresh presence in early gardens. The overall habit is neat yet generous, with several blossoms arranged along each stem that offer a pleasing blend of color and scent.

Design tip

The early flowers arrive when the garden is still waking up, so give it a spot you pass often in spring. Plant in generous groups rather than single spots, and set them among perennials whose new growth covers the fading foliage.
