Product Details
Did you forget to order Daffodil and Tulip bulbs last fall? You can still enjoy these colorful and cheerful spring blossoms at your house. This season, we’re delighted to offer prepotted baskets full of spring-flowering favorites. Narcissus 'Kedron' boasts a unique color combination of bright orange cups surrounded by coppery yellow petals for a stunning spring display. Keep close to the doorstep for a delightful spring fragrance. Our 12" wide x 6" tall bulb baskets are designed for outdoor display. They arrive ready to begin growing.
Each basket features a single variety of Daffodil or Tulip. Simply set the basket in a sunny spot outdoors upon arrival, no need to worry about a frost. Water it occasionally, and, over the course of 4-6 weeks, watch as green shoots and then blossoms appear. Choose a single basket for your porch, patio, or front stoop, or order several different types so you can mix and match colors and flower forms to create a vibrant display.
Shipping
HOW PLANTS ARE SHIPPED
The size of the plants we ship has been selected to reduce the shock of transplanting. For some, this means a large, bareroot crown. Others cannot travel bareroot or transplant best if grown in containers. We ship these perennials and annuals in 1 pint pots, except as noted. We must point out that many perennials will not bloom the first year after planting, but will the following year, amply rewarding your patience. We ship bulbs as dormant, bare bulbs, sometimes with some wood shavings or moss. Shrubs, Roses, vines, and other woody plants may be shipped bareroot or in pots. The size of the pot is noted in the quick facts for each item.
WHEN WE SHIP
We ship our bulbs and plants at the right time for planting in your area, except as noted, with orders dispatched on a first-come, first-served basis by climate zone. We also ship a wide range of containers and planters, tools, supplies, fertilizers, garden wear, garden decor items, as well as indoor decorations like wreaths and dried bouquets when available. Estimated dates for shipping are indicated in the green Shipping Details box for each item. Please supply a street address for delivery. Kindly contact us with two weeks notice, if you'll be away at the expected time of delivery.

Growing guide
Our Ready-to-Bloom Narcissus Baskets are intended to be displayed outdoors in spring. Upon arrival, carefully remove the packing material. You may find pale, tender leaf tips emerging from the potting mix; these will green up once exposed to sunlight. In some cases, the growing medium may be partly frozen, and this is not harmful to your bulbs. Once thawed, gently press down loose soil and brush off any excess, leaving up to an inch of space from the top of the pot to accommodate watering.
Set the basket of Narcissus bulbs in a sunny location outside. A semi-protected spot near the house—on a porch, patio, or front stoop—is ideal. Bulbs have everything they need to grow and bloom (fertilizer is unnecessary) and have been pre-chilled for the right amount of time. They will endure spring’s freezing and thawing temperatures, and precipitation, with minimal care. Water when the potting mix feels dry to the touch. We recommend removing the pot from the basket before watering if possible, giving it time to drain before replacing it in the basket.
Please note that the growth of the bulbs will be slower in colder temperatures and faster in warmer temperatures. Bulbs usually begin blooming 4-6 weeks after arrival.
What you do with your bulbs after they bloom depends on your climate and your inclinations. The Narcissus (Daffodil) bulbs can be planted outdoors if they are hardy in your area, and most are hardy to Zone 4. If you choose to plant your Daffodils, plant in the ground at the same level as in the pot. Expect a year or more to pass before the bulbs will bloom again.
