Daffodil and Narcissus Flower Bulbs
Daffodil Varieties For Every Taste And Garden Style
One of the greatest benefits of Daffodils is the variety they offer. With over 13,000 different types of Daffodils, there's a bulb to suit every taste and garden style. Botanically, Daffodils can be divided into four categories: Double Daffodils, Trumpet Daffodils, Mini Daffodils, and Large-cup Daffodils. Some varieties are fragrant, while others are perfect as cut flowers in a spring bouquet.
At DutchGrown, we have done the legwork for you. We have carefully selected the finest varieties and supply only the highest quality Daffodil bulbs to ensure optimal performance. Whether you prefer Daffodil types like the Mini Daffodil “Thalia”, “Tete a Tete”, or the all-time popular classic Trumpet Daffodil. Daffodil varieties are easy to mix and match, even with other flowers, to create a stunning visual display that complements the overall aesthetic of your garden.
Daffodils originated in cold climates, and most varieties thrive in cooler zones. In warmer climates, look for varieties such as the spectacular white Ice Follies or the miniature Daffodil Pipit, which grow well in warm areas up to USDA zone 9.
An Easy-To-Grow Showstopper That Makes Every Spring Garden Shine

Not only are they one of the most popular flowering garden plants for their early spring appearance, Daffodil bulbs are also exceptionally easy to grow with minimal maintenance.

How To Plant Daffodil Bulbs For Maximum Effect
Daffodils are very suitable for many gardeners. They can even grow in pots and containers. But for maximum effect, here are a few key steps to ensure your Daffodils bloom to their full potential.
Select a sunny or partially shaded location, such as a bed, lawn, or under trees in the fall. Be sure to plant in well-draining soil to prevent bulb rot. You can add peat, bark, or manure to improve potentially soggy soil. Then, dig a hole and plant them 4 inches deep (about 10 cm) and 4–8 inches apart (about 10-20 cm) to avoid competing for nutrients. Water well after planting, and nature will do the rest. After planting Daffodils, you will be rewarded with flower buds that turn yellow and grow into beautiful flowers. Need some help with growing Narcissus?

Frequently Asked Questions about Daffodil (Narcissus)
What Does Daffodil Symbolize?
The Daffodil is an iconic and beloved spring flower that symbolizes renewal, hope and new beginnings. As one of the first flowers to appear in spring, it heralds the season's arrival and embodies the promise of positive change. With its bright yellow, white or orange blooms, the Daffodil not only brightens landscapes but also lifts spirits, making it an enduring symbol of optimism and new beginnings.
What Month Do Daffodils Bloom?
Most Daffodils typically bloom in early to mid-spring, brightening gardens with their vibrant colors. But if you're looking for an earlier splash of sunshine, consider planting February Gold Mini Daffodils, which can brighten your garden as early as late winter. After blooming, wait for the foliage to naturally dry out to move nutrients back into the bulb for next year's blooms. You can find more information in our guide “How To Care For Daffodils?”.
Do Daffodils Prefer Sun Or Shade?
Daffodils grow best in full sun or partial shade, making them versatile in various garden settings. For optimal growth, plant them in a sunny or partially shaded spot, such as a border, in a lawn or under trees. This will ensure that your Daffodils receive enough sunlight while being protected from harsh conditions, resulting in vibrant blooms and healthy plants each spring.
Why Is A Daffodil Called Narcissus?
The name “Narcissus” is the botanical term for Daffodil, derived from Greek mythology in which Narcissus was a young man who fell in love with his reflection. It is said that the drooping flowers represent Narcissus bending over water to catch his reflection. While some may debate the veracity of one term over the other, everyone can agree that there are many reasons to love Daffodils as the perfect spring flower.
