Our "Bloom or Bust" Promise

Tamara, often admired for its yellow colouring, is a bulb variety especially well suited to containers.

Narcissus 'Tamara' is a quietly elegant, large-cupped daffodil in soft yellow tones, bringing a refined lift to the garden in early spring. Lightly creased petals frame a ruffled golden cup, creating a look that feels both classic and freshly composed.

Ideal for borders, containers and naturalising in grass, it forms neat clumps with grey-green foliage and returns reliably year after year. Plant in autumn and look forward to a poised flourish from March to April.

Where to Plant:

Narcissus 'Tamara' (Daffodil) needs full-sun, partial 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 10–15cm 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.
