Description

Wake the spring garden with a roar of colour from this Tulip and Narcissus ‘Animal’ Collection. Daffodils are known for their early spring flowering charm, being one of the very first to signal the end of cold winter days and welcome the exciting growing seasons to come. Get an exceptional colour contrast by growing the two daffodil varieties alongside the elegant pinkish orange classic tulip blooms of ‘Apricot Foxx’.

Enjoy this excellent collection that includes:

  • 30 x Daffodil ‘Quail’ bulbs, size 8/10: British spring gardening classics, every garden needs daffodils! This ‘Quail’ variety is known as one of the yellowest available, with slightly rounded leaves and long stems each topped with up to four sweetly fragrant, golden-yellow flowers.
  • 15 x Daffodil ‘Pheasant’s Eye’ bulbs, size 12/14: Don’t settle for just one variety, how about yet another daffodil? ‘Pheasant’s Eye’ is one from the history books, having been grown in our gardens for more than 100 years. Each of the elegant white flowers boast a small red and yellow cup, capping off high-reaching dark green stems.
  • 20 x Tulip ‘Apricot Foxx’ bulbs, size 10/11: Apricot-coloured tulips, contrasting with the pair of daffodils to perfection, with a traditional tulip shape and rising upright from rich green foliage - so are particularly good for the vase.

Supplied as a mixed collection of 65 bulbs, ready for autumn planting.

Top Tips
  • Add mycorrhizal fungi to the roots before planting to encourage faster and more reliable establishment.
Care Information

Bulb Planting Advice:

  • Plant bulbs at twice the depth of the height of the bulb and four times their width apart. e.g. 5cm tall bulbs need to be planted 10cm below the surface of the ground and 20cm apart.
  • They are fine to plant even if a little green growth is showing, they’ll just need a good watering when you plant them, and then only when the soil is dry.
  • Leave them in the ground once they die back for flowers again next year.
  • While all the energy that a bulb needs in order to grow is stored in the bulb itself, they will do better if you feed them when in active green growth.
  • Plant in herbaceous borders, in pots, or leave in the ground to naturalise.
  • If planted in pots be sure to water frequently and keep moist.

Aftercare Advice:

  • Bulbs can be planted as late as December, but it’s best to get your bulbs in the ground earlier so that they can establish a good root system before the weather becomes too cold.
  • Plant in herbaceous borders, in pots, or leave in the ground to naturalise.
  • Water frequently and if in pots ensure that the compost doesn't dry out.

Cutting Back:

  • Once flowering is over, it is important to leave the leaves on until they have died right down, usually by early summer. This allows the bulbs to store food and produce flowers in the following year.
Delivery Information

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
