Daffodil

This highly scented narcissus is perfect for growing indoors. It produces a profusion of small yellow flowers with orange trumpets between December and January, filling the house with scent. Alternatively it can be grown outdoors as normal. To grow indoors, plant bulbs 5cm (2in) deep in early autumn and plunge in a cold frame outdoors until roots appear. Bring into the greenhouse and gradually increase the temperature. Water freely and feed with weak high potash fertiliser once a week. Bring into the house once flower buds appear. The bulbs are best discarded after flowering.
