Canaliculatus, often admired for its white, yellow colouring, is a bulb variety especially well suited to pots & containers.

Narcissus ‘Canaliculatus’ is a small, exquisitely detailed daffodil with a delightfully composed fragrance and a naturally graceful habit. Each stem carries neat clusters of miniature blooms: crisp white petals set off by a deep yellow cup, bringing a refined sparkle to early spring displays.

Perfectly proportioned for pots, troughs and smaller garden spaces, it excels in a warm, sunny position with light, free-draining soil. Plant in autumn and allow it to settle; in return, it will form charming clumps that quietly improve year after year.

  • Colour: White petals with deep yellow cup
  • Scent: Fragrant
  • Best for: Pots, patios, courtyards, and the front of borders
  • Wildlife: Pollinator friendly
  • Also noted for: Deer resistant

Where to Plant:

Narcissus 'Canaliculatus' (Daffodil) needs full-sun and a warm, sheltered position for the best flowering. Plant into fertile, humus-rich soil that drains well, and choose a spot protected from strong winds, especially for taller varieties.

How to Plant:

Plant bulb from September to December once conditions are suitable. Set them at the correct depth for the variety, spacing 10cm apart where relevant, then firm in gently and water well after planting.

Aftercare:

Water regularly in dry weather and feed every two to three weeks once buds appear. Stake taller stems early and deadhead to keep plants flowering. After flowering, allow foliage to die back naturally before lifting or protecting bulb according to local conditions.

I ordered the mixed hyacinth collection and the scent in my garden this April was absolutely heavenly. Every single bulb produced a strong, beautiful flower and the colours were stunning together. A fantastic purchase, I'll be back for more next year!
