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.
'Hunter Morn'
daffodil
Narcissus 'Hunter Morn' is a quietly enchanting variety that brings a sense of softness to the early spring garden. Each stem carries multiple blooms, their creamy white petals opening with a gentle poise that feels both fresh and refined. At the centre of every flower, a soft cup reveals the faintest wash of yellow, as though touched by the first light of morning. This subtle interplay of tones gives Narcissus 'Hunter Morn' a luminous quality, allowing it to brighten borders without ever overwhelming them. Its neat habit and strong stems, reaching around 25cm, ensure that Narcissus 'Hunter Morn' holds itself gracefully in all weathers.
Early to flower and wonderfully reliable, Narcissus 'Hunter Morn' is as practical as it is pretty. Ideal for borders, containers, lawns and informal drifts, it naturalises with ease, returning year after year with increasing generosity. The multi-headed blooms of Narcissus 'Hunter Morn' also make it particularly valuable for creating a fuller display in smaller spaces, while its soft colouring pairs beautifully with pastels and fresh greens. Loved by pollinators and entirely winter hardy, Narcissus 'Hunter Morn' is one of those quietly indispensable varieties that brings both charm and continuity to the spring garden.

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.
