The Thompson and Morgan Narcissus Viridi 2 is an ideal choice for gardeners looking to extend their seasonal display with rare, late-flowering bulbs that offer a unique aesthetic and scent profile. These hardy perennials are perfect for borders, naturalising in grass, or container planting, providing a distinct cream and green bloom with an unexpected mint and liquorice fragrance; however, gardeners must ensure soil remains well-drained to prevent the bulbs from waterlogging during the cooler autumn and winter months.

These should be planted in the autumn months to allow for proper root establishment before the blooming period.
Yes, they are well-suited for pots, provided you use well-draining compost and ensure the pot has adequate drainage holes.
These narcissus produce a unique, distinct fragrance described as a blend of mint and liquorice.
Yes, they are hardy perennials capable of surviving typical outdoor garden conditions.
They are excellent for naturalising, meaning you can leave them in the ground to multiply and return the following year.
They thrive in either full sun or partial shade conditions.
Check the soil drainage; the bulbs may have rotted due to excess standing water.
Ensure the plant is receiving sufficient light; increase sun exposure if possible.
The location is likely too warm; move the pot to a cooler spot below 10C.
For outdoor success, plant the bulbs in a location that receives full sun to partial shade in soil that remains moist yet well-drained. Ensure the bulbs are planted at the recommended depth for the species. If you intend to force them for an indoor display, keep the pots in a cool environment, ensuring the ambient temperature does not exceed 10C (50F) before they flower. During the active growing season, provide a light feed, but take care to avoid excess fertiliser, as this can encourage excessive foliage growth at the expense of the blooms. Monitor soil moisture levels closely, especially in containers, to avoid both waterlogging and total desiccation.
