Scented Indoor Narcissus Collection
- Perfect for Pots
- Scented
These highly fragrant narcissi are easy and wonderful for forcing indoors to add winter cheer and scent
Make them a nest of twigs – these look good and support the leaves and flowers as they grow – and cover the soil with moss or dried leaves. All three of these knock the socks off the rather coarser and widely available 'Grand S'ol Dor'. 'Ziva' and 'Avalanche' will flower first, followed later by 'Cragford'.
This collection contains 5 or 15 bulbs each of:- Narcissus papyraceus 'Ziva' (Forcing)
- Narcissus 'Cragford' (Forcing)
- Narcissus 'Avalanche' (Forcing)
This can be gift wrapped in our exclusive hessian sack, with ribbon and a Sarah Raven gift card. You will be able to add this to your basket once you begin the checkout process. To add a gift message to your order, simply fill out the details at the delivery stage of the checkout.
