Brightly colored trumpet shaped blooms. I know why I like it. Have you ever been to the Dallas Arboretum in the spring time? Jimmy Turner has a great program called Dallas Blooms every March and April. It was when I was touring the arboretum with Jimmy that I noticed his large planting of Narcissus 'Fortune.' Years later when I saw it coming back in gardens year after year in the South, I realized that such a bulb held high potential for our gardens. We are excited to offer them this year for sale, and hope you too will enjoy the brightly colored, large trumpet shaped blooms.

 

Plant the bulbs about 2-3 times the size of the bulb (so if the bulb is 1 inch long, plant it 2-3 inches deep). If you are farther north and get very cold during the winter, you may want to plant it about 4-6 inches deep. Space the holes about 3-6 inches apart, and for a more natural looking display, consider planting 2-3 bulbs in each hole.
