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.
'Spring Paradijs'
daffodil
Plant swathes of radiant Narcissus 'Spring Paradijs' and you’ll be all set for a sunny spring glow, whatever the weather. This extra special double daffodil dishes out plenty of spring cheer with its huge, petal-packed blooms and heady, sweet fragrance. These golden girls have tall stems which makes them completely unmissable in the garden, and of course outstanding material for beautiful bouquets. Whilst tall, the stems of Narcissus 'Spring Paradijs' are remarkably sturdy, supporting those impressive, chunky yellow flowerheads for a strong, long-lasting and undeniably uplifting show.
Double-flowered daffodils like Narcissus 'Spring Paradijs' are high impact from afar and extraordinary to assimilate up close. The best thing about daffodils is that they are exceptionally resilient and reliable, thriving in most conditions and not only flowering once, but over and over again each year. Over time, they will even multiply so you end up with bigger, more impressive clumps than you started with. Flowering during April, Narcissus 'Spring Paradijs' combines perfectly with tulips.

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.
