Narcissus 'Jumelee' Bulbs

Narcissus 'Jumelee' is a beautifully fragrant, multi-headed daffodil producing clusters of elegant white flowers with delicate lemon-yellow cups.

Flowering early from February to March and reaching around 35cm tall, its profusion of scented blooms makes it an excellent choice for spring borders, containers and planting near paths or entrances.

  • Height: about 35cm
  • Spread: 10–15cm
  • Flower colour: white with lemon to greenish-yellow cups
  • Flowering time: February to March
  • Fragrance: strongly fragrant
  • Position: full sun or partial shade
  • Soil: fertile, well-drained soil

About Narcissus 'Jumelee'

Narcissus 'Jumelee' is particularly attractive for its multi-flowered habit, producing several blooms together rather than a single flower on each stem.

The flowers feature clean white outer petals surrounding a neat, trumpet-shaped cup. This opens in delicate lemon-yellow to greenish-yellow shades, creating a fresh contrast against the white petals.

The lightly flared cups have gently ruffled edges, while the slightly swept-back outer petals give the flowers an elegant, open appearance.

With several flowers produced together, established groups can create an impressive display without requiring the height of larger trumpet daffodils.

'Jumelee' is also wonderfully fragrant, making it particularly rewarding when planted somewhere its scent can be enjoyed regularly.

Planting Tips

  • Plant bulbs in autumn.

Once flowering has finished, remove faded flower heads but leave the foliage in place until it has yellowed and died back naturally. This allows the bulbs to replenish their energy for the following year's display.

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.
