Description
Narcissus 'Flower Surprise' sounds like the name of a novelty balloon—but don’t be fooled. This fully double daffodil is every bit as luxurious as its peony-like blooms suggest. With layers upon layers of ruffled petals, Narcissus 'Flower Surprise' doesn’t so much bloom as it unfurls—like crumpled silk or delicate tissue caught in a soft spring breeze. At the heart of each flower, warm tones of salmon to melon swirl dreamily together, framed by elegant ivory outer petals. As if that weren’t enough, there’s a sweet fragrance too, just to remind you this is a proper plant and not an elaborate pastry.
Plant Narcissus 'Flower Surprise' where it can be admired up close—perhaps along a garden path or in pots on the patio. It flowers in early to mid-spring, holding its own among both the classics and the more flamboyant garden companions. Whether you’re pairing it with subtle shades or going full cottage-garden chaos, Narcissus 'Flower Surprise' brings a certain soft elegance to the show. With six mentions under its belt and charm to spare, Narcissus 'Flower Surprise' is less of a mystery and more of a seasonal delight you’ll want to welcome back year after year.
