Description

Narcissus Mount Hood is a timeless, pure white trumpet daffodil that delivers clean architectural lines and a serene colour presence to the spring landscape. Its large, flared trumpet initially opens with a hint of ivory or pale primrose, quickly maturing to a uniform glacial white, held high above robust, upright stems reaching 40–50 cm. Flowering in mid to late spring, it brings clarity and refinement to both formal beds and naturalistic schemes, thriving in full sun and well-drained, fertile soils across all Irish growing regions.

This cultivar is especially striking when planted in cool-toned bulb combinations or light-reflective borders. For maximum effect and seasonal layering, pair it with blue Muscari, Tulip White Triumphato’ or the green-flushed Spring Green, adding height harmony and extending the visual rhythm of mid-spring borders. Along woodland edges or in shaded beds, Mount Hood blends elegantly with Anemone nemorosa, native bluebells (Hyacinthoides non-scripta), or even later-flowering Camassia leichtlinii, where its pure white blooms light up the understorey.

While not fragrant, its large, open trumpet provides reliable access to nectar and pollen for mid-season bumblebees, solitary bees, and hoverflies, making it a valuable contributor to pollinator-focused planting schemes. Strong, weather-tolerant, and visually balanced, Mount Hood is ideal for municipal displays, white-themed gardens, evening-lit borders, and biodiversity-driven landscapes that call for elegance without compromise.

Supplied in economical 25kg bulk bags, Mount Hood is ideal for municipal and commercial projects, including parks, campuses, and long-term perennial planting schemes. Works beautifully in bulb layering and underplanted tree zones.
