Daffodil (Narcissi) Rip Van Winkle

Narcissus Rip Van Winkle

A delightfully unusual dwarf daffodil, Narcissus ‘Rip Van Winkle’ is prized for its spiky, starburst blooms that look more like miniature chrysanthemums than traditional daffodils. Each flower is packed with narrow, twisted golden petals that create a frilly, almost shaggy effect, bringing a touch of whimsy to spring displays. Blooming in mid- to late spring, it stands out both for its quirky form and its cheerful colour.

Compact and sturdy, this daffodil is ideal for pots, rock gardens, front-of-border planting, or naturalising in grass where its unique blooms will surprise and charm year after year. Its small size makes it perfect for closer viewing, where the intricate detail of each flower can be fully appreciated. Like most daffodils, it is hardy, low-maintenance, and reliably pest-resistant.
