Narcissus 'Le Torch' | Le Torch Daffodil

$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Narcissus ‘Le Torch’ produces bold spring flowers with rich golden-yellow outer petals surrounding a densely layered center of glowing orange to red-orange segments that create a warm, torch-like effect. Smooth, blue-green foliage rises in upright clumps, giving the plant a clean, architectural presence as the blooms open. The overall habit is sturdy and well balanced, with each stem supporting a full, rounded flower that brings depth and intensity to seasonal plantings.

This double daffodil blooms in mid spring and is well suited for borders, containers, cutting gardens, and naturalized drifts where richly colored blooms enhance garden displays. Introduced through twentieth-century breeding programs, it remains widely planted for dependable flowering and lasting spring color.
