Description

Bring sunshine to your spring garden with the happy yellow blooms of Narcissus 'Tête à Tête', now available as XXL bulbs! By planting our XXL bulbs, you will soon be enjoying a natural-looking display which appears as though it has been there for years. This is miniature narcissus variety and, despite the large bulb size, the blooms are as dainty, sweet and petite as always. The difference is, these 'Tête à Tête XXL' bulbs have already started to multiply (produce young bulbs on the sides), meaning that they will grow into established groups right from the start.

Planting one of our Narcissus 'Tête à Tête XXL' bulbs is essentially planting a ready-formed little group of bulbs. This means that not only will you enjoy cute groups of daffodils sooner, but you can dig fewer holes to achieve this natural, established effect! Bulb sizing refers to an average measurement around the circumference of the bulb cluster. What you can expect to receive is a cluster of bulbs which can be planted together in one piece.
