Narcissus 'Flor D'Luna' Bulbs

Narcissus 'Flor D'Luna' is an eye-catching reverse bicolour daffodil with bright lemon-yellow petals surrounding a contrasting creamy white cup.

Growing to around 30–40cm tall, its unusual colouring provides a fresh twist on the traditional spring daffodil and looks particularly effective planted in groups.

  • Height: 30–40cm
  • Spread: 10–15cm
  • Flower colour: lemon yellow with a creamy white cup
  • Flowering time: spring
  • Position: full sun or partial shade
  • Soil: fertile, well-drained soil

About Narcissus 'Flor D'Luna'

Narcissus 'Flor D'Luna' is particularly notable for its reverse bicolour flowers.

Unlike the familiar combination of pale outer petals and a yellow or orange centre, 'Flor D'Luna' reverses the effect with rich lemon-yellow perianth segments surrounding a much paler cup.

The creamy white corona has an attractively flared and gently ruffled edge, standing out clearly against the yellow petals.

A subtle paler zone where the petals meet the cup further emphasises the contrast between the two colours.

The flowers are held individually on sturdy upright stems above narrow green foliage. At 30–40cm tall, the plants are easy to incorporate into borders as well as pots and other spring displays.

The unusual reverse bicolour is best appreciated when several bulbs are planted together in a group or informal drift.

Planting Tips

  • Plant bulbs in autumn.
  • Choose a sunny or partially shaded position.
  • Plant approximately 10–15cm deep.
  • Space bulbs around 10cm apart.
  • Water after planting if the soil is particularly dry.

After flowering, remove faded blooms but leave the foliage to yellow and die back naturally. This allows the leaves to replenish the bulbs ready for flowering the following spring.

Frequently Asked Questions

When is the best time to plant daffodil bulbs in the UK?

Daffodil and narcissus bulbs should ideally be planted from September to November in well-drained soil. This gives the bulbs enough time to establish roots before the growing season and ensures a vibrant spring bloom.

How deep should I dig daffodil bulbs?

Plant bulbs at a depth of 2-3 times their height, covering them with soil to protect against frost and pests. Proper depth helps bulbs survive winter and return year after year with healthy foliage and flowers.

Can daffodils be planted with tulips or other spring bulbs?

Yes! Planting daffodils alongside tulips, crocus, or Muscari extends your garden’s spring colour and provides early forage for pollinators. This combination also creates natural drifts and clumps, enhancing your display.

How do I know if my daffodil bulbs are healthy?

Look for signs like firm, plump bulbs with no mould or soft spots. Healthy bulbs have intact tunics and show no signs of disease or damage, ensuring they produce strong shoots and bright flowers in the spring.

When is the best time for autumn planting of spring bulbs?

The ideal time to plant spring flowering bulbs like tulips, daffodils, crocus, and snowdrops is from September to November. Planting during this period allows bulbs to establish roots before winter and ensures a healthy, vibrant bloom in early spring, with stunning green foliage and flower colours ranging from purple and blue to bright yellows and whites.
