Home > AUTUMN PLANTED BULBS > Narcissus > Narcissus 'Mallee'

Narcissus 'Mallee' is a truly enchanting daffodil, renowned for its beautifully frilly, ruffled petals that give it an elegant, almost skirt-like appearance. Opening in mid-spring, its blooms start creamy white before gently shifting to a delicate salmon-pink, with a soft yellow throat that adds a warm, sunny glow at the heart of each flower.

The softly undulating edges of ‘Mallee’ petals create a charming texture and movement, making it a standout choice for borders, pots, or naturalised areas. It’s a wonderful option either planted alone for a show-stopping display or paired alongside more understated daffodils to add a touch of playful sophistication to your spring garden.

With its subtle colour transition and frilly silhouette, Narcissus 'Mallee' brings a fresh and feminine feel, perfect for those who appreciate a daffodil with a little extra flair.

How to plant Narcissus

Find a location with well-drained soil. Narcissus will not thrive in water-logged areas.
Narcissus like to receive full sun for most of the day.

Planting Narcissus in the Garden

If planting in the garden, plant the bulbs with their pointed tops 10-15cm (4-6") below the soil surface with smaller bulbs placed more shallowly than larger ones.
Space the bulbs 7-10cm (3-4") apart. Allow 4 to 5 bulbs per square foot.

Planting Narcissus in Pots

If planting in pots, find a large container and fill it with good-quality, well-drained soil. Ensure there is adequate draining holes.
Plant in the Autumn, September through November.
Plant the bulbs with their pointed tops 10-15cm (4-6")
After planting, water the Narcissus well, gently soaking the soil to settle it around the bulbs.
Narcissus will flower early Spring.

Care Instructions

How to care for Narcissus

After flowering has finished for the season leave the foliage in place; don't cut it off. The leaves will gather sunlight, create food through photosynthesis and strengthen the bulbs for the future.
Water as needed during active growth periods.
By mid summer the leaves may yellow and die back. Foliage may be removed at this point.
