Daffodil Ice King
Narcissus Ice King has a truly royal appearance! This gorgeous daffodil comes with a twist, in fact many twists! The flower features six, symmetrical, creamy-white petals. In the centre of the flower, instead of a corona, there are many more tightly ruffled petals in a lemon-yellow colour. As the flower ages, the midpoint will change its colour to creamy-white as well. This narcissus resembles a peony flower more than its own kind.
Ice King belongs to the Double Narcissus group, which features lovely frills and twice as more petals or trumpets (in rare cases – both). The flowers are incredibly fragrant as well. The bulbs are weather-resistant, they do not require any special care and can quickly multiply for many years to come.

Other information
- First loosen the soil well where the daffodil bulbs will be planted. Then the soil is easier to work with.
- Dig a hole and make sure it is 2 to 3 times as deep as the height of the bulbs.
- For the distance between the bulbs, make sure it is 2 times the diameter of the bulbs.
- Plant the flower bulbs in the hole with the pointed side facing up or with the root base facing down.
- Cover the daffodil bulbs with soil and water them well.
