Trumpet Daffodil Mixture

Trumpet Daffodil Mixture – is our most majestic mixture of daffodils. Daffodil is really a common name for Narcissus and it’s what we think of when referring to a trumpet variety. Daffodils are divided up into many ‘divisions’. The top division being the trumpet. That is, any daffodil where the cup is longer than the petal. It is the most classic form of narcissus and a timeless representation of spring.

All of our daffodil bulbs come from local farmers around the Lincolnshire area. In this mix you will receive a mixture of the trumpet varieties we have in stock. This includes early pure yellow flowers to the later pure white flowers, with bicoloured flowers in-between.

The flowering times range from February to April so you will get a prolonged flower display.

How to Plant

Plant Trumpet Daffodil Mixture ideally before November to get the roots started but they will still perform if planted into January. They can take most soil types and are fully hardy.

Plant 10-15 cm deep and anywhere from 5 – 10cm apart. You don’t have to be too precious; watch this video of us planting a 25kg sack of bulbs.

Once they are planted they shouldn’t need any additional care.

Trumpet Daffodil Mixture bulbs are repellent to squirrels and deer although slugs and snails can make a bit of a mess early in the year.

Over time Trumpet Daffodil Mixture will naturalise by spreading seed and by dividing. Just make sure you leave the foliage to die back so they come back the next year. It can take several years for bulblets and seeds to develop into flowers. See our 25kg sacks to get great value for money for larger projects. You will get up to 500 bulbs per 25kg sack or see our mix of miniature narcissus for even more variety.
