Product Information

Full details

The Thompson & Morgan Narcissus 'Suzy' is an ideal choice for gardeners seeking a reliable, fragrant, and vibrant spring display in borders or containers. As an RHS AGM (Award of Garden Merit) variety, it offers high-performance growth and multi-headed stems that provide a dense, colorful impact. While these bulbs are exceptionally easy to establish in most garden soils, they require consistent drainage to prevent rot during the dormant winter months.

FAQs

Can I grow these in pots?

Yes, 'Suzy' is perfect for containers. Ensure your pot has drainage holes and use a high-quality multipurpose compost.

When is the best time to plant them?

Plant them in the autumn, usually between September and November, before the ground freezes.

Should I feed them?

While not strictly necessary, you can apply a balanced liquid fertilizer once growth appears in early spring to encourage better flowering.

Do I need to lift the bulbs after they flower?

No, you can leave them in the ground or pot. They will naturalize and return year after year if given proper care.

Why is it called a Jonquilla daffodil?

Jonquilla refers to the specific classification of the Narcissus genus, known for their cluster-flowered stems and strong fragrance.

Troubleshooting

Bulbs failing to sprout

Check if the soil was waterlogged over winter, which can rot the bulb, or ensure they were planted at the correct 10cm depth.

Weak or spindly growth

This often indicates insufficient sunlight. Move containers or plan to replant in a sunnier location next season.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Narcissus 'Suzy' bulbs thrive, follow these planting guidelines:

  1. Timing: Plant in the autumn while the soil is still workable.
  2. Depth: Bury the bulbs at a depth of 10cm.
  3. Spacing: Place each bulb 10cm apart. If planting in pots, you can space them slightly closer for a denser display.
  4. Soil Conditions: Ensure the soil is moist but well-drained. If planting in heavy clay, add grit or sharp sand to the bottom of the planting hole to improve drainage.
  5. Sunlight: These bulbs thrive in full sun or partial shade. Ensure they receive at least 4-6 hours of sunlight for optimal flowering.

After flowering, allow the foliage to die back naturally for at least six weeks. This ensures the bulb stores enough energy for the following year's bloom.
