Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Even those new to gardening know this daffodil. Dutch Master is the most widely grown yellow daffodil, having taken the crown some years back from King Alfred. Flower color, form and size - completely classic.

More reliable than the origional King Alfred, but with the same striking trumpets! Bulbs are medium sized (about 12 cm around) PLEASE NOTE: Daffodils and other spring blooming bulbs can still be planted in spring, as long as there are several weeks of cool weather left. Plant only 2-3 inches deep because they don't have as long to reach the surface.
