The Daffodil 'Gloriosus' is a tazetta that has been around since the 1880s. Each stalk produces multiple smaller blooms that have white petals surround a bright orange cup. Even though each bloom is small, the cluster of blooms provide lots of color and make a big impact in your garden. The tazetta is a good choice for a reliable bloom that will come back year after year. 

Plant: Plant the bulbs about 2-3 times the size of the bulb (so if the bulb is 1 inch long, plant it 2-3 inches deep). If you are farther north and get very cold during the winter, you may want to plant it about 4-6 inches deep. Space the holes about 3-6 inches apart, and for a more natural looking display, consider planting 2-3 bulbs in each hole. 

Landscaping Tip: Narcissus bloom at different times so as one daffodil is ending its bloom time another is just beginning. We like to say that "there is a bulb that blooms every week of the year in warmer climates."  Your garden can have consistent flowers that you can enjoy inside or outside for months and carry you all the way from February through April. 

Fragrance: This Narcissus has a light, sweet fragrance. This fragrance can add an extra dimension of beauty to the flower and make it more attractive to pollinators like bees and butterflies.
