Bulbs

Narcissus 'Orangery'

Orangery Daffodil

Narcissus 'Orangery' displays creamy white outer petals arranged around a warm center of soft yellow-orange tones that deepen as the flowers mature. Smooth, blue-green foliage rises in upright fans, giving the plant a clean, architectural foundation through the bloom period. The overall habit is sturdy and well balanced, with each stem supporting a generously sized flower that brings gentle color variation.

This split-corona daffodil blooms in mid spring with sculpted flowers well suited for borders, containers, cutting gardens, and naturalized plantings. It is popular where layered form and warm color enhance seasonal garden displays.

Design tip

The early flowers arrive when the garden is still waking up, so give it a spot you pass often in spring. Drift them in uneven groups for a natural look, and interplant with perennials that fill the gap after the leaves die back.
