Narcissus Growing Guide

Planting Narcissus

Plant these bulbs in fall.
If you cannot plant your bulbs right away store them in a cool, dry, dark location, like a basement.
Plant them with the pointy end up in a sunny to semi-shaded area about 15 cm (6 in) deep and 15 to 20 cm (6 to 8 in) apart.
Water thoroughly after planting.

Growing Narcissus

These bulbs do best in well-drained soil.
These bulbs are suitable for almost every possible application: fields, beds, containers, borders, rock gardens, as cut flowers and for forcing.
These bulbs look good planted in groups at the base of trees or in wooded areas.
Plant in groups of eight or more bulbs which then appear more natural.

Care Narcissus

These bulbs are deer resistant and work great in areas where deer or rodents are a problem.
Fertilize just before they start blooming.
Remove the flowers when they are spent. Otherwise the plant will divert energy from building up the bulb, which is necessary for next year’s display.

Winterizing Narcissus

After flowering, the leaves should be allowed to die down. The leaves will gather sunlight and provide nourishment for next year’s show.
These bulbs come back for several years.
