Narcissus Tickled Pinkeen

Narcissus Tickled Pinkeen is a very rare variety, yellow with an orange trumpet.

Narcissus are the most resilient bulbs planted in the autumn and will thrive both in full sun and partial shade. They prefer well-drained soil but also thrive in heavy soil.

For bouquets: We recommend not mixing Narcissus with other flowers, tulips in particular, as the stems of Narcissus contain a substance that causes other flowers to wilt quickly. This detrimental effect on other flower varieties can be mitigated by dipping the ends of Narcissus stems in warm water for 1 to 2 minutes.

Narcissus come back every year. Unlike perennial plants, it is unnecessary to feed before flowering. Only cut the leaves when they have turned yellow and apply fertiliser then, this is when the bulb replenishes itself and prepares the flowers for the following year.
