Description

Be one of the first to grow this exciting, brand new daffodil, Narcissus 'Double Joy'! This sunny character brings a bold blast of colour to the garden in mid spring each year with its muddled mass of yellow and orange petals. If you find this colourway familiar, that’s because this is a slightly wacky cousin of much-loved Narcissus 'Jetfire'. It’s as golden, glowing, strong and reliable it’s relative, but the extra petals bring double the fun!  

Plant Narcissus 'Double Joy' in pots, borders or even in the lawn and wait for the spring glee to kick in! Typically flowering in around March, there’s nothing like a zesty dash of yellow and orange to bring a ray of sunshine to even the greyest of days. Every year, this cheery daffodil with pop up for another lively show, and over time the bulbs of Narcissus 'Double Joy' will multiply to form established clumps. If you’re looking for bulbs to plant with a bright and breezy daffodil like this, try pairing with purple or blue hyacinths.
