Narcissus 'Salome' | Salome Daffodil

$0.00

DESCRIPTION
Narcissus ‘Salome’ features creamy white petals surrounding a softly flared cup that opens pale apricot and matures to warm peach tones through the bloom period. Slender, blue-green foliage forms upright clumps that give the plant a fresh, orderly appearance as flowers emerge. The overall habit is graceful and well balanced, with each stem presenting a single bloom that adds gentle color shifts to spring plantings.

This large-cupped daffodil blooms in mid to late spring and is well suited for borders, cutting gardens, containers, and naturalized drifts. Introduced in the mid twentieth century, it remains widely planted where refined color and reliable flowering support garden design.
