Description
Delight the senses with the true aroma of spring! There’s no more distinct spring fragrance than that of the daffodil, and Narcissus ‘Albus Plenus Odoratus’ provides it by the bucket-load. The wonderful white double blooms have powerful scent – every time you step out of the house you’ll be able to enjoy this beauty close up or from afar as its scent is carried in the air, particularly so on sunny days. This variety has unusual looks, without a traditional trumpet but with an extra whorl of petals instead. Growing to a height of around 30cm, the strong stems support these elegant flowers throughout the season, so you can enjoy them with very little fuss.
Narcissus ‘Albus Plenus Odoratus’ is a great choice for planting in containers where they can be positioned close to the house and the scent can be admired. Or plant them in borders where they can naturalise, providing stronger and bolder natural groups year after year. And finally, don’t forget to snip a few stems to display in your home too – they make wonderful cut flowers with outstanding vase life. Once they’re indoors, the fragrance is unmissable.
