Narcissus
'Hunter Sunrise'
daffodil
Optimistic and hopeful like a sunny spring morning, Narcissus 'Hunter Sunrise' is a gorgeous new introduction to the daffodil range. It’s bound to turn heads with its charm and daintiness. The buttery-yellow petals with their creamy-white base are the perfect foil for its pretty ruffled cups, edged in cream to match the base of the petals. This lovely colour combination lights up beautifully in the spring sunshine, creating an eye-catching display.
Flowering mid-late season as spring really gets underway in the garden, this 'Hunter Sunrise' daffodil makes a complimentary pairing with the soft colours of forget-me-nots, or alpines such as Iberis and pastel shades of Aubretia. Or for a classic colour contrast, try planting it with bluebells in an area of lightly dappled shade.
Narcissus 'Hunter Sunrise' produces multiple flowering stems per bulb. A daffodil with fragrant flowers, it’s best to plant densely in groups of at least 10 to get the best possible hit of spring-like scent. With its relatively small stature, around 30-40cm in hight, it makes a delightful subject for a group of pots, a rockery, a window box or a dedicated planting area for diminutive spring beauties. Narcissus 'Hunter Sunrise' could also make a very attractive and scented cut flower for a group of little vases or jars along a windowsill.

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.
