Daffodil Altruist
Graceful, nodding blooms of delicate primrose-yellow make this award-winning dwarf Narcissus a favourite for early-to-mid Spring displays. Belonging to the Triandrus group, each slender, upright stem produces a charming bouquet of up to five multi-headed flowers featuring reflexed outer petals and neat, cup-shaped centres. Emitting a sweet, gentle fragrance, its dainty appearance belies a remarkably tough, weather-resistant nature that holds up brilliantly against wind and rain. Exceptional for naturalising, it fills rock gardens, borders, and patio containers with effortless charm year after year.
