Narcissi 'Desert Bells' - 5 bulbs Price £ 9.5
Narcissi 'Desert Bells' - 5 bulbs - A lovely and unusual brand new variety with a mix of different coloured flowers on one plant. The centre is a pale ivory-primrose when they first open, fading gently to almost white, with a strong, heady, incense-like scent.
Over the years, I've been on the look out for several very unusual and hard to find spring-flowering narcissi. This is one of the select, spectacularly beautiful narcissi crew - a little more expensive, so not for planting en masse, but rather to have a few to appreciate.

For the vase:
Narcissi make great cut flowers lasting up to a week in the vase. I love them jumbled up in large jugs on the table. Be careful mixing with other flower types as their stems give off a compound that is toxic to other flowers and soak their stems in warm water before displaying to stop the 'goo' from running out.
