Narcissus (Red Devon)

Red Devon Large Cupped Narcissus – 16 Bulbs

The Red Devon is a large-cupped narcissus, also known as a daffodil, that is prized for its vibrant color and classic form. The blooms feature bright, greenish-yellow petals that form a backdrop for a prominent, frilly-edged, rich orange cup. These daffodils typically grow to a height of 16-18 inches and bloom in mid-spring. They are an excellent choice for naturalizing, as they are hardy, reliable, and will return year after year. Plant these narcissus in the fall for spring blooms.
