More Information

Narcissus Jet Fire is a little garden rocket. Bright and optimistic, beaming with warm colours. You’ll get a lot of pleasure from these little flowers. The golden petals reflex 45 degrees back from the glowing orange trumpet. The trumpet has a frilled flourish that rounds off the end of the dynamic heads. Cycalmenius narcissus are named after cyclamen due to the backward facing petals. Narcissus Jet Fire is a very recognisable flower and regularly used for potted flowers.

This Narcissus grows well and is very versatile, over time it will form clumps by bulb division and naturalise if left undisturbed. They are available in bulk quantities for large landscape jobs. Due to their resilience they make a long lasting impression on large scale projects but are equally suited to small containers around the garden.

Narcissus are relatively low maintenance and will come back year-on-year. They benefit from being deadheaded as the flowers fade, and allow the leaves to die down naturally so that the bulbs have nutrients to come back the following year.

You can propagate narcissus bulbs by division when clumps have formed. Gently lift and separate bulbs, to replant as the leaves fade in early summer, or in early autumn before new roots are produced.

Plant the bulbs in Autumn for a March display. Dig a hole 8-10cm deep and place the bulbs around 8cm apart. If you are planting large quantities it is often easier to dig a trench and place the bulbs pointed side up and cover over. Even if the bulbs fall to their side it will not effect their ability to grow. Narcissus Jet Fire are happiest in sunshine but they will grow in semi shade too.
