The Thompson and Morgan Daffodil 'Peeping Tom' is an ideal choice for gardeners looking for a reliable, early-spring bloom that thrives in borders, rockeries, or containers. Recognized for its long, golden yellow trumpets and unique reflexed petals, this variety offers a compact stature perfect for naturalising in lawns or brightening indoor displays. While it is easy to establish, gardeners should note that it requires moist, well-drained soil to thrive and achieve its full bloom potential.

These bulbs are typically planted in the autumn to ensure they are established before the spring blooming period.

Yes, as a perennial bulb, 'Peeping Tom' will return annually if given proper care and allowed to die back naturally after flowering.
The plant reaches a maximum height of approximately 30cm when fully established.
Absolutely; they are an excellent choice for naturalising in grass for an informal, wildflower effect.
Check soil drainage to ensure bulbs haven't rotted; ensure they were planted at the recommended 10cm depth.
Ensure the planting area receives adequate sunlight; 'Peeping Tom' performs best in full sun or light shade.
Avoid cutting back foliage until it has turned brown naturally, as the bulb needs this time to store energy.
To establish these bulbs, choose a spot in full sun or semi-shade. Dig a planting hole to a depth of approximately 10cm, ensuring the bulb is nestled into the soil with the pointed end facing up. Space each bulb at least 10cm apart to allow for proper root development and spread.
For ongoing care, ensure the soil remains moist but never waterlogged, as daffodils are prone to rotting in stagnant water. If growing in containers, monitor the moisture levels in the bulb fibre carefully. Once the flowering period concludes, allow the foliage to die back naturally, as this stores energy in the bulb for next year's growth.
