White Flower Farm Narcissus Rose of May

Unlike traditional trumpet-shaped daffodils, 'Rose of May' features double-petal structures that create a lush, gardenia-like appearance. This unique texture, combined with a distinct fragrance, sets it apart from common spring varieties.

Yes, Narcissus bulbs contain compounds that are naturally unpalatable to deer, voles, and other garden pests. They are a reliable choice for gardeners who struggle with wildlife browsing.

Absolutely. Because they have a compact mature height of 12-16 inches, they are well-suited for containers. Ensure your pot has excellent drainage to prevent the bulbs from rotting.

Plant these bulbs in the fall, before the ground freezes. This allows them to establish a root system during the cooler months so they are ready to bloom in May.

After the flowers fade, leave the foliage intact until it turns yellow and dies back naturally. This allows the plant to store energy in the bulb for next year's growth.

For the best visual impact, plant these in clusters or drifts rather than single rows. With a recommended spacing of 5-6 inches, a pack of 12 bulbs is perfect for creating a dense, impactful grouping in a garden bed.
