Mr. Kees Breed’s Small Cupped Narcissus Mixture

Mr. Breed was the loving curator of the world’s largest living museum of flower bulbs~over 5,000 varieties. Sadly, Mr. Breed, a quiet, hard-working man with a blue-eyed twinkle, passed away in 2017. In his memory, his son, Eric Breed, created this blend of his father’s favorite Small Cups. They range from primitive hybrids of N. poeticus and N. pseudonarcissus, to some that are really new. Most have flat flowers with distinctly colored cup edges. As Eric says, "they’re all charming and graceful~the upper-class ladies of the Daffodil world." Narcissus Class: Small Cupped (Royal Horticultural Society Division 3). Bulb size: DNII. April. HZ: 3-7. Height: 14" to 16".

Narcissi are The Art & Soul of Spring.

  • Information
  • Small Cupped Narcissi
    Small Cupped Narcissi have cups that measure no more than one-third the length of their petals. They have perfectly formed perianths and refined cups, each of which boasts of intricately colored edges, throats or eyes. Characteristically offering one flower per stem, just one Small Cupped Narcissus stem in a tall bud vase makes a stunning display. They are also much loved for the fact that deer and rodents do not like to eat them!

    All Narcissi tolerate a wide range of sunlight from full sun to semi-shade. Narcissi prefer well-draining soil, hate to get wet feet and love to be fed with a 4-10-6 or 5-10-5 granular organic flower bulb fertilizer three times a year. Allow the foliage to thrive and die back naturally without braiding or premature removal. DNII bulb size: 14/16 cm, unless otherwise noted. Bloom time in horticultural zone 5: April. Plant 6" to 8" deep and 6" apart. Horticultural zones 3-8. Height: 14" to 16", depending upon variety. Narcissus classification: Royal Horticultural Society Division 3.
