Narcissus 'Curlew' is a delightful, multi-headed daffodil which produces very fragrant flowers. Unlike most other daffs, the flower colour will change as they age, so although the outer petals (perianth) are a pure creamy-white, the long central trumpet opens yellow and will gradually fade to match. A vigorous variety, each single bulb should soon multiply, making it ideal for naturalising.
Wearing gloves plant bulbs 10-15cm (4-6in) deep and 10cm (4in) apart in autumn. After flowering feed with a balanced fertiliser, deadhead the flowers, but do not be tempted to cut back or tidy the foliage after flowering as this will interfere with the bulbs’ ability to store energy for the following year's flowers.
