Daffodil Prom Dance
15 bulbs for € 7.20
(Split-crowned)
Sturdy late bloomer, a variety that has already made waves in England at the Chelsea Flower Show! And which was also admired last year in a well-known park in Antwerp. Each flower stem has multiple fragrant flowers. Highly recommended!
Many daffodil species are suitable for naturalizing., that is to say, they simply remain in the ground after flowering! The foliage must be allowed to die back naturally, and the bulbs will bloom again the following year.
Daffodils are classified into different categories. The Royal Horticultural Society in London registers all species and describes whether they are wild species or cultivars. The following 12 categories are maintained:
- Trumpet; 1 flower per stem. The trumpet is longer than the petals.
- Large-crowned; 1 flower per stem. The trumpet is longer than 1/3 of the length of the petals but not longer than the petals themselves.
- Small-crowned; 1 flower per stem. The trumpet is no longer than 1/3 of the length of the petals.
- Double; 1 or more flowers per stem. Doubling of petals or a double trumpet or both.
- Triandrus; 1 or more flowers per stem. Petals point strongly backward.
- Cyclamineus; 1 flower per stem. Petals point backward. Flower bent toward the ground relative to the stem.
- Jonquilla; 1 to 5 flowers per stem. Hollow or funnel-shaped trumpet. Often fragrant.
- Tazetta; 3 to 20 flowers per (sturdy) stem. Petals do not point backward. Often fragrant.
- Poeticus; usually 1 flower per stem. Petals pure white. Cup very short or disc-shaped, often yellow with a green heart and sometimes an orange edge. Usually fragrant.
- Bulbocodium; usually 1 flower per stem. Very small petals in relation to the large cup.
- Split-crowned, divided into two groups:Collar daffodil; the cup is open over the petals. Usually in 2 groups of 3.Butterfly daffodil; the cup is open but slightly twisted over the petals.
- All daffodils that do not fall into another category.
