Description
Narcissus Victoria is an elegant double daffodil that blends classic form with modern poise. Each bloom features clean white petals arranged around a full, ruffled pale-yellow cup, giving the flower a soft, romantic profile with excellent visibility and lasting ornamental value. Reaching 40–50 cm in height, Victoria delivers reliable mid-season performance and offers a refined alternative to bolder yellows in large-scale planting schemes.
Flowering in mid-spring, Victoria thrives in full sun to light shade and prefers fertile, free-draining soils with moderate organic content — such as well-conditioned loam or sandy clay. It performs exceptionally well in estate lawns, school entrance beds, churchyards, and municipal borders where a fresh, layered look is desired. Its upright stems and dense double bloom form make it both wind-tolerant and rain-resistant, ensuring it remains a showpiece even in coastal or exposed Irish landscapes.
While it is not strongly fragrant, the open, multi-layered form provides pollinator access, particularly for short-tongued bees and hoverflies. The flower’s pale colouration also enhances visibility for early pollinators during overcast conditions.
Narcissus Victoria partners beautifully with Hyacinth Carnegie, Muscari Siberian Tiger, or Tulip White Valley for monochrome massing or tonal contrast. Ideal for reflective wellness gardens, civic planting with seasonal depth, or public-facing landscapes in hospitality and healthcare sectors that benefit from structure and calm visual rhythm.
