Narcissus Grand Primo

Narcissus Grand Primo – a charming, multi-headed tazetta narcissus, producing numerous flowers per stem. Starting off with green buds, opening up into mid-sized flowers of pure white with yellow anthers. They sit on a tall stem with simple dark green foliage. Tazetta bulbs are ideal for forcing for early indoor flowers. These are a great alternative to Paperwhites, a traditional Christmas flower, if planted by early November. The Narcissus Grand Primo bulbs are equally happy when planted outdoors and will flower later in spring. The full heads of white flowers last a long time. They look great either planted in large groups but also stand alone well, dotted around the garden.

Narcissus bulbs grow well in most environments which is why they are well suited to pots. Remember to keep them moist but not over watered. You can plant the bulbs either in full sun or in semi shade, place them 10-15cm deep and 10cm apart.

How do I force Tazetta Bulbs?

To force Narcissus Grand Primo, simply place the bulbs in a pot with some soil, they can be planted just below the surface, with about 10cm of room for the roots. These bulbs don’t need a cold spell like other forced bulbs. Simple place them in a moderately warm and light position and they should be ready in 6 weeks.
