Narcissus 'White Petticoat' – 20 flower bulbs (bulb size 6/8)

Plant these 20 Narcissus 'White Petticoat' bulbs between September and November, and enjoy white flowers from March to April. Daffodils herald the arrival of spring and return year after year; they spread to form increasingly larger clumps. They look beautiful in borders, lawns, under trees and shrubs, and in pots. Bulb size 6/8 indicates the circumference of the bulbs in centimetres; a larger bulb contains more reserves for flowering.
