Small but perfectly formed
Daffodils aren't just for March. You can enjoy their cheerful yellow trumpets in your garden from January until May if you plan cleverly: we've got a fantastic choice in our garden centre to help you do just that.
Early to rise
- 'Rijnveld's Early Sensation': in flower by Christmas some years. Brilliant yellow and 35cm tall
- 'February Gold': does what it says on the tin: this pure yellow gem reaches just 15cm in late February
- 'Tete a Tete': one of the best miniatures, flowering prolifically with golden swept-back petals. About 15cm
Mid-season marvels
- Tenby daffodil (Narcissus Obvallaris): Wordsworth's golden daffodil: small and dainty at 25cm
- 'Rip Van Winkle': miniature double with a spiky mane of green-tinged, spiky petals. To 15cm
- 'Jenny' is a mid-sized daffodil at 25cm, with a pale butterscotch trumpet and swept-back, creamy petals
Late and lovely
- 'Dutch Master': brilliant golden trumpets and a delicate scent, growing to 45cm tall
- 'Cheerfulness' is a double with three or four scented blooms on each stem: 45cm
- Pheasant's eye daffodil (Narcissus Poeticus var. Recurvus): among the last to flower, these delicate white daffs are also scented: 40cm tall
