Daffodil
Bittern
-
8-10cm
8-10cm Daffodil ‘Bittern’ (Narcissus) is a delightful miniature daffodil that proves great things come in small packages. Each stem produces one to two blooms, with soft lemon-yellow petals framing a bright orange, frilled cup. The colour intensity can deepen depending on the weather, adding extra character through the flowering period.
Flowering in the mid season, Bittern’s compact, dwarf habit makes it perfect for pots, rock gardens, edging, and the front of borders, where its fine detail can be enjoyed up close. Easy to grow and reliably perennial, it’s a charming choice for smaller spaces and container planting.

Daffodils are among the showiest and easiest to grow of Spring flowering bulbs. Available in an incredible array of colours and shapes, they are ideal for the Spring flower garden.
Prepare the soil deeply, mixing in compost, or our Bulb Fertilizer, preferably in a sunny, free draining position.
Daffodil bulbs are best planted in bold clumps, 8-10cm deep and 10-15cm apart.
If drainage is a problem, plant shallower, and mound 7-10cm of soil over the bulbs.
