Narcissus
'Jumelée'
daffodil
Narcissus 'Jumelée' is one of those wonderfully generous daffodils that seems determined to make the most of spring. Multi-flowered and free flowering, it produces clusters of elegant blooms, each with clean white petals surrounding a small greenish-yellow cup. The restrained colouring gives Narcissus 'Jumelée' a fresh, almost botanical quality, while its abundance of flowers ensures the overall effect is anything but shy. Then there is the fragrance: deliciously sweet and particularly noticeable when several bulbs are planted together. Narcissus 'Jumelée' is ideal for bringing a lighter touch to spring borders, where its crisp white flowers sit beautifully among emerging green foliage and provide an elegant counterpoint to more brightly coloured bulbs.
Plant Narcissus 'Jumelée' in informal groups through beds and borders, or gather it into patio pots where its perfume can be appreciated whenever you pass. Its white and greenish-yellow palette makes it exceptionally easy to combine, working beautifully with blue muscari, soft pink or purple tulips and other narcissus in shades of cream and yellow. The fragrant, multi-headed stems are also lovely for cutting, bringing several flowers indoors with every stem and making even a modest bunch feel pleasingly abundant. Narcissus 'Jumelée' has a natural elegance that suits both traditional and contemporary planting, particularly when repeated in generous drifts. Graceful, richly flowering and wonderfully scented, Narcissus 'Jumelée' proves that a relatively simple colour palette can still create quite a stir.

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.
