Deer Resistant Spring Color
Frilly split cups of peachy apricot are displayed on a white petal backdrop. This beauty opens from creamy buds and inner petals magically transform from yellow to warm coral peach hues. The split corona atop the petals swirls as though it is dancing in layers of ruffles. One of the showiest varieties!

Daffodil 'Apricot Whirl'

Daffodil General Information

The Split Corona variety has an unusual shape making it one of the showiest. The cup is split for about one-half its length. Consider planting them under deciduous trees that will not leaf out until after the Narcissus have bloomed.

Daffodil Plant Care

In fall, plant bulbs in deep, fertile, well-drained soil in full sun to light shade. Plant 6" apart and 6" deep in groups of 5,7,9 or more. Water during their growth period. After flowers bloom, let the foliage die back naturally. Once the foliage fades, cut it back. Interested in forcing bulbs? Visit our Useful Links page.
