Our staff have been restocking bulbs, and a few favorites have emerged! Mid–October to mid-November is the right time to plant them. Come in this weekend as they’re going fast! We have a curated collection of flowering Allium, Narcissus (daffodils), Crocus, Tulips, and more!

Our staff have been restocking bulbs, and a few favorites have emerged! Mid–October to mid-November is the right time to plant them. Come in this weekend as they’re going fast! We have a curated collection of flowering Allium, Narcissus (daffodils), Crocus, Tulips, and more!

These Narcissi (daffodils) like full to partial sun, and well-drained soils. They are very deer and rodent resistant!

Narcissus poeticus v. recurvus ’Pheasant’s Eye’– (pictured here) is a very fragrant, late-spring blooming daffodil, very close to its wild ancestor. This storied plant is also known as the Poet’s Daffodil, famous in ancient Greek literature and among the first cultivated daffodils! Pheasant’s Eye is known for its sweet scent and vigorous, spreading habit. This long-lived heirloom  reliably multiplies and produces numerous blooms year after year.

Narcissus ‘Mount Hood’

Narcissus, ‘Mount Hood’ trumpet  – A classic, large-flowered trumpet daffodil that starts with a pale yellow trumpet and matures into a large, pure-white bloom, making it an award-winning  perennial choice for spring gardens. It’s known for its height (16″), sturdy stems, long-lasting blooms, ability to naturalize, and resistance to deer and other pests. ‘Mount Hood’ is lightly fragrant and blooms in mid-spring.

Narcissus, ‘Yazz’ –The ‘Yazz’ daffodil is a variety of fragrant Jonquilla daffodil known for its unique color-changing features, with pale yellow petals that mature to ivory, and a luxurious, frilled cup in shades of apricot to pink to cream, often with a pink or orange rim. This charming and compact flower grows to 12-14 inches tall and produces multiple dainty blooms per stem, making it a popular choice for borders, cut flowers, and naturalizing in gardens.
