Daffodil ‘Tahiti’

The strong and sturdy Narcissus Tahiti is known for producing bright-yellow double blooms with fiery-orange centres each spring. Plant these in pots, containers or straight into the ground in autumn for a fantastic springtime display.
For maximum impact, plant in groups of 6-10 in full sun or semi-shade, either on their own or with other spring-flowering bulbs of different colours for an eye-catching display. Supplied as a pack of 18 bulbs, size 12/14 ready 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.
• Propagate by removing offsets in the early summer to populate new areas.

 

Care Guide

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