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.

Let this ray of sunshine fill your home with fragrance and a splash of sunny colour during spring, beaming Narcissus 'Grand Soleil d'Or' is perfect if you just can’t wait to get into the spring spirit! Throwing out long, upright stems topped with multiple scented blooms, this vigorous daffodil brightens the day whatever the weather outside. Although this is a great variety for forcing indoors for a winter or early spring display, it’s also suitable for growing outdoors too but will need a sunny, sheltered location and the free-draining soil of a rockery or gravel garden for its best chance of surviving in the ground through winter.
When grown outdoors, Narcissus 'Grand Soleil d'Or' blooms around April or May.

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.
