Description

Narcissus Dick Wilden is a bold, long-lasting double daffodil known for its vivid golden-yellow blooms with tightly packed, ruffled inner petals that resemble a garden rose or peony. This robust cultivar grows to 35–45 cm and flowers in mid-spring, delivering an eye-catching splash of colour and form to formal beds, public plantings, and cottage-style gardens alike.

It performs reliably across Irish climates, thriving in sun or partial shade and moderately fertile, well-drained soils. Dick Wilden is weather-resistant and holds its blooms upright, even during rain, making it particularly suited to exposed coastal gardens and urban planters.

Highly effective when planted in clumps or large drifts, especially with contrasting bulbs such as blue Muscari, white Hyacinths, or purple Tulip Negrita. The dense double flowers are also excellent for cut arrangements, holding well in water. A top choice for designers looking to add architectural texture and bold colour to spring schemes with minimal effort.
