(Narcissus). A strikingly different kind of daffodil, these blooms have peach to tangerine-colored, extra fancy ruffled cups. Plant en masse, or tuck into the nooks and crannies of your cottage garden design. Wherever this variety goes, it will get tons of attention! Plants reach 16 inches tall and are early bloomers.

Growing Tips: Precocious daffodil grows best in well-drained, slightly acidic soil and prefers full sun or partial shade. These daffodils are ideal for borders, naturalizing, and container planting, providing long-lasting color in mid to late spring.

When to Grow

Plant Precocious daffodil bulbs in the fall, typically between September and November, just before the first hard frost of the season. This allows the bulbs to develop roots before the ground freezes. If you're not sure how to find your area's first and last frost dates, consult our blog post 'Our Experts Answer Questions, Share Resources.'

How to Sow and Plant

Plant bulbs with the pointed end up, 6 inches deep in well-draining soil. Space bulbs about 3-6 inches apart to allow for natural spreading. Water thoroughly after planting to settle the soil and support root development.

How to Grow

Once established, daffodils don’t require a lot of maintenance. Water regularly during the growing season but reduce watering after flowering. Fertilize lightly in early spring as the leaves begin to emerge. Allow the foliage to die back naturally, as it helps the bulbs store energy for the next blooming season​.

How to Save Seeds

These perennials will return and fill in year after year, making them a long-lasting choice for your garden. Over time, daffodil bulbs multiply and can be divided every 3-5 years to prevent overcrowding and ensure better blooming.
