Many white daffodils
open with yellow in
the cup and mature
to all white. However,
N. ‘Thalia’ opens
pure white. It is
SO white, it makes
the colors of all the
other flowers POP!
Here with Muscari
armeniacum
and T.‘Decora’,
N.’Thalia’ almost
glows!

Narcissus/Daffodil-Cyclamineus
DIVISION 6 – CYCLAMINEUS
“One flower to a stem; perianth segments significantly
reflexed; flower at an acute angle to the stem,
with a very short pedicel or neck”. With their faces
looking like they are standing in front of a fan,
they look and perform wonderfully in pots and are
terrific for forcing; seem to be more tolerant to
partial shade and moisture as a group; 4–5 per sq.
ft.; whz 4–9. Bulbs are 12/14cm unless otherwise
noted.
Ara - nicely formed
daffodil with a lemon
yellow cup surrounded
by white overlapping
perianth segments;
strong daffodil, great
for large displays in
the garden; 12”-16”;

Itzim – like a rocket,
this little yellow
flower with a rich orange
cup often points
up with its petals
flared back toward
the ground; long lasting
American bred
winner; early spring;
10”–12”; (12/14cm).
#01-0620 10/$6.30
N. ‘Itzim’
50/$26 100/$48 500/$205 1000/$360
Because N. ‘Itzim’
blooms in early
spring and has such
happy, eye-catching
colors, it really helps
to chase away the
‘doldrums’ often
brought about by the
dull colors of a long
winter season. But
when combined with
other bright, complimenting
colors
like T. ‘Flair’, it lifts
the heart and even
causes more smiles
to all who are privileged
to see them
bloom together!
