Narcissus
'Sweet Angel'
daffodil
Narcissus 'Sweet Angel' is a quietly enchanting presence in the spring garden, offering an understated elegance that feels both fresh and timeless. Each bloom of Narcissus 'Sweet Angel' opens like a softly cupped chalice, its ivory-white petals gently flared and illuminated by a delicate greenish throat and warm golden stamens. There is a lightness to Narcissus bulbocodium 'Sweet Angel' that catches the eye without overwhelming its companions, making it a refined choice for naturalistic planting schemes or subtle, tonal borders. Set against a haze of emerging foliage or early perennials, Narcissus 'Sweet Angel' brings a calm, luminous quality that feels almost painterly.
Beyond its beauty, Narcissus 'Sweet Angel' is pleasingly reliable and easy to grow, returning year after year with increasing generosity. Its slender stems and slightly nodding flowers lend a graceful movement, particularly when planted in drifts where Narcissus 'Sweet Angel' can weave through grasses or low ground cover. It performs well in both borders and containers, provided it enjoys good drainage and a sunny or lightly shaded spot. Whether viewed up close or from a distance, Narcissus bulbocodium 'Sweet Angel' offers a gentle sophistication that rewards the attentive gardener with a display that feels both natural and thoughtfully composed.

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.
