NARCISSUS PAPER WHITE
Family: Amaryllidaceae
Nickname: Narcissus
Non-hardy tazetta daffodils, these are
the bulbs that can be put in a pot and forced without
any cold period...in fact, they should NEVER be
put in the refrigerator! If you can’t pot them up
as soon as you receive them, store them in a warm,
dry place like on top of the refrigerator; 17cm+
unless otherwise noted; culturally, very easy to
grow but their buds may ‘blast’ (never open) if
subjected to a too hot and dry environment inside
your home; the heights are variable, depending on
number of ‘light hours’ given. The fewer hours of
light, the taller they will be. (Best rooted at 55–65º;
then keep pots 65º with bottom heat (70º+) to ensure
bloom).
