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.
'Gracy's Green'
daffodil
Narcissus 'Gracy’s Green' is a poeticus daffodil with a quietly intriguing twist. New and exclusive to Farmer Gracy, this refined variety pairs classic ivory-white petals with a remarkably unusual corona—shifting in tone from olive green to a soft chartreuse as the flower matures. It’s a subtle, painterly transformation that adds a contemporary note to the spring garden, perfect for those who appreciate elegant details with a touch of the unexpected.
Ideal for borders, raised beds or containers where its distinctive colouring can be properly appreciated, Narcissus 'Gracy’s Green' is as reliable as it is graceful. Like other poeticus types, it prefers a sunny or lightly shaded spot with well-drained soil and will return year after year with minimal fuss. Whether used to soften bolder plantings or as a standout in a more minimalist scheme, Narcissus 'Gracy’s Green' brings a cool sophistication to the season’s floral line-up. It's a daffodil that doesn’t shout—but absolutely knows its worth.

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.
