A time-tested favorite with award-winning appeal, Narcissus Delibes Daffodil offers brilliant mid to late spring color and lasting garden value. Its large blooms feature sunny yellow petals surrounding a vibrant orange-red cup, delivering a bold, cheerful contrast that enlivens any spring setting. With strong stems, wildlife resistance, and classic form, Delibes stands out in both performance and presence. Deer and rabbits avoid it, bees love its early-season nectar, and it's drought tolerant once flowering ends. Honored with the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit, it's a dependable choice for mass plantings and perennial success.
Perfect for naturalizing in drifts or spotlighting in beds, borders, and containers, Delibes shines when planted in groups. It pairs beautifully with tulips, grape hyacinths, or other spring-flowering bulbs that complement its color and timing. Whether lining a woodland path or brightening a formal garden, this daffodil adds structured charm and pollinator-friendly color. Use Delibes as a daffodil for cut flowers or companion plants for spring bulbs.
Plant bulbs in full sun to partial shade, spacing them 6 inches apart and planting 6 inches deep in well-drained soil. Hardy in USDA Zones 3-8, Narcissus Delibes returns year after year with minimal care. Bred for lasting garden beauty, it's one of the most reliable and striking daffodils for season-spanning spring displays.
