Thanks to the individuals (Hélène, order preparation & Adeline from the shipping department), the 10 received bulbs are healthy. Planted close to white & yellow roses, I am now looking forward to seeing their development...

Description

Narcissus 'Popeye' boasts a double crown. The immaculate white flowers bear a beautiful lemon-yellow trumpet at the centre. This narcissus is particularly vigorous. It is an excellent flower for bouquets.

 

Even before being put on the market, Narcissus 'Popeye' received multiple awards in Holland.

One of the reasons why narcissus are so appreciated is because their flowering heralds the arrival of spring and sunny days. Narcissus are perennial and very hardy, so you can count on them to return year after year without any problems. Plant them wherever you like, whether it's in lawns, rockeries, borders, or even containers and troughs.

As a side note, according to Greek legend, Narcissus was a handsome young man condemned by the gods to only love himself. When he saw his reflection in a fountain, he stood there contemplating his image and ended up drowning. He then transformed into a flower.

Planting and care

Narcissus 'Popeye' blooms from March to May and comes back every year. Very easy to grow, they can tolerate both the shade of woodland and a sunny flower bed. They prefer moist but well-drained soils. Plant them in autumn, 10cm (6in) deep and spaced 10cm (4in) apart. Group them in clusters of at least 5 bulbs, in patches of uniform colour or mixed.

You can plant them in lawns. In this case, lift the turf, dig and loosen the soil to a depth of at least 20cm (8in) (the length of a spade). Plant your bulbs, cover with soil and replace the turf. Choose a spot where you won't mow, as the daffodil leaves must wither before cutting them. The bulb uses the leaves to rebuild itself and prepare the flowers for the following year. However, remember to cut the flowers as soon as they fade to avoid seed formation. This would unnecessarily exhaust the bulb. 

Cut the leaves when they have turned yellow and apply fertiliser at that time, not before. Maintain regular watering during the growing season and then let the soil dry out once the foliage is mature.
