Narcissus 'King Alfred' stands as an iconic representation of the classic yellow daffodil. Introduced in the early 20th century, it quickly rose to prominence and became a household name, synonymous with bright yellow, trumpet-shaped blooms. The large, radiant flowers are golden yellow throughout, from the perianth to the trumpet. This daffodil has not only won the hearts of gardeners with its beauty but also with its vigorous growth and adaptability.
Why We Like It
- Classic, bright golden-yellow blooms that symbolize the onset of spring.
- Robust and adaptable growth across various conditions.
- Excellent for both garden displays and cut flower arrangements.
What to Know
- Plant in well-draining soil that's enriched with organic matter.
- 'King Alfred' prefers full sun, but it can tolerate partial shade.
- Ensure consistent moisture during its active growing phase, but avoid waterlogged soil.
- Once the blooms have faded, let the green foliage die back naturally, as this process nourishes the bulb for the following year.
- While it's generally resistant to pests, monitoring for slugs and bulb flies can be beneficial.
