  • Information
  • Jonquilla Narcissi
    All sweetly fragrant, Jonquilla Narcissi yield one to five, and occasionally more, flowers per stem. The flowers have spreading or reflexed flower petals (perianth) and a cup-shaped, funnel-shaped or flared corona that is usually wider than it is long. Its foliage is rather slender. Jonquils are ideal for naturalizing as well as for forcing. They are also much loved for the fact that deer and rodents do not like to eat them!

    All Narcissi tolerate a wide range of sunlight from full sun to semi-shade. Varieties with pink cups are shades of light salmon, apricot-pink, coral or soft old rose. They should be grown in areas of filtered sunlight where their delicately colored cups may be protected from direct sunlight that bleaches out their pinkness. Narcissi prefer well-draining soil, hate to get wet feet and love to be fed with a 4-10-6 or 5-10-5 granular organic flower bulb fertilizer three times a year. Allow the foliage to thrive and die back naturally without braiding or premature removal. DNII bulb size: 12/14 cm, unless otherwise noted. Bloom time in horticultural zone 5: May. Plant 6" deep and 6" apart. Horticultural zones 5-9. Height: 6" to 16" depending on the variety. Narcissus classification: Royal Horticultural Society Division 7.
