Plant daffodil bulbs from September to November. If needed, store them somewhere cool and dry, away from mice, but plant before they begin to deteriorate.
When spring whispers, Narcissus 'Avalon' answers with a flourish. Its large, gently cupped blooms pair golden outer petals with a soft white central cup, offering a sophisticated twist on the classic daffodil. Narcissus 'Avalon' doesn’t just brighten a garden—it gently nudges your expectations, showing that elegance and surprise can bloom from the same bulb. Scatter a few in borders, plant them in pots, or group them together, and you’ll enjoy a mist of romantic colour that dances lightly on each sturdy stem.
Beneath its striking appearance, Narcissus 'Avalon' is refreshingly uncomplicated. Given the right conditions, these bulbs can remain in the ground year after year, rewarding you with dependable spring charm. Whether nestled among other daffodils or stealing the show in their own right, Narcissus 'Avalon' brings a touch of refinement and gentle drama to every garden. From first bud to last bloom, Narcissus 'Avalon' proves that unusual beauty and effortless elegance are not mutually exclusive—and all it asks in return is a sunny spot to shine.

Plant profile
Plant calendar
Choose full sun or partial shade. Improve heavy soil with organic matter and horticultural grit. For containers, use peat-free multipurpose compost with good drainage.
Plant bulbs pointed side upwards, two to three times their own height deep and around 10cm apart. Smaller bulbs can be planted slightly closer together.
Water after planting if the soil is dry. Established bulbs in borders rarely need more, but water during dry spring weather and keep containers lightly moist.
Remove faded flowers, but leave the stems and foliage until they turn yellow and die back naturally. The bulbs can remain planted throughout the year.
