Products › Autumn planted bulbs to flower in the Spring › Narcissus › Narcissus Ice Wings

A multi-headed form with beautiful, if bashful, clear ivory-white flowers with a lovely scent. Lovely with the blues of the Muscari at this time of year. These do not fit into the other groupings, but are nevertheless perfect for garden use.  Flowering in March/April, 12" (30cm) high.

Planting instructions

Plant them really quite deeply with 5-6" (12-15cm) of cool rich soil in sun or part shade over the bulb, where it will remain more cool, more moist in the spring and drier and safer from activity above them in the summer. Do not be tempted to cut back or tidy the foliage after flowering - this period of replenishment of the bulb's starchy food reserves is critical to future flowering. A liquid feed while starchy leaves are still green will benefit clumps in poorer soil. I would suggest you plant them in distinct groups and not randomly - the effect is generally better. They should clump up from being planted about 4" (10cm) apart, further apart for more 'relaxed' planting.
