Anyone who knows me knows that in the spring I like to give away a bunch of Daffodils to people who come to visit us or to friends and acquaintances I visit.
I once took a large bunch of this sunny Narcissus to the Physio (Yes, I have something too). The masseur is a happy lady who can help you get rid of your aches and pains. When handing over the bunch, I also got the usual spiel of 'oh how sweet' and 'that really wasn't necessary'. But the bunch was happily taken and then placed in a glass of which the far too much water that was in it sloshed delightfully over the edge of the glass and then dripped from the windowsill, I could laugh about it.
'What is the name of this Narcissus Carlos' was asked with interest. It is a seedling, she does not have a name yet, if you know a nice name I would like to hear it, because I can't think of a suitable name for this Narcissus. I think it is one of our prettier seedlings but I can't think of a catchy name for her.
It took about ten minutes, the hand was just gently placed on the sore spot, when she suddenly said: Hello Sunshine. It really is a beautiful Narcissus with large bright flowers, that makes you happy, just like the sun, the sun always makes me happy too. Call her 'Hello Sunshine, Hello Sunshine is a beautiful name for this Narcissus.
A bull's eye. This name tells in two words everything there is to tell about this Narcissus. Hello Sunshine.
Thank you Tinda for this beautiful name, next time I will bring you flowers again.

Daffodil planting and care
Plant daffodil bulbs in autumn in a sunny or lightly shaded position with well-drained soil. Loosen the soil thoroughly, then plant the bulbs with the pointed end facing upwards at a depth of approximately two to three times the height of the bulb. Leave around 5 to 10 cm between the bulbs.
Water after planting if the soil is dry. Avoid leaving the bulbs in persistently wet soil, as this can cause them to rot. In a suitable position, daffodils can return for many years and gradually multiply.
Read our complete guide to when and how to plant and care for daffodil bulbs.
You can order daffodil bulbs from us from early spring onwards for the next planting season. We take care of the proper storage and only ship the bulbs when the autumn planting season begins. This means you receive fresh bulbs at the right time for planting and a strong start in the garden.
Daffodil bulbs are planted in autumn, before the ground freezes. They will then flower in spring.
For a full display, Fluwel recommends around 40 daffodil bulbs per square metre. For miniature daffodils such as Tête-à-Tête, around 80 bulbs per square metre can be used.
Yes. Daffodils are reliable perennial bulbs and can continue growing in the same spot for many years. In a suitable location, they can also naturalise well.
This varies somewhat by variety. Daffodils grow well in sunny locations, while several varieties are also suitable for partial shade, so it is best to check the requirements of the individual variety.
Fluwel recommends removing the faded flowers after flowering. This allows the plant’s energy to go back into the bulb and helps prepare it for flowering again in the following season.
