That was a nice surprise, flower bulb grower Ammerlaan from Anna Paulowna called me to ask if I wanted to come and see his Narcissus. Ammerlaan calls more often to come and see and he always has interesting and beautiful varieties so I quickly made an appointment.
But this time he really managed to surprise me. When we arrived at his nursery he showed me a large batch of a truly beautiful Narcissus. It is another species from your father he told me. Years ago I bought it from you as a very small batch and I would like it if you would be the first to sell it for us. And if I could think of a suitable name for this beauty.
A daffodil with such a tender appearance and refined color can only have one name: Tender Beauty.
Her soft appearance makes you think that Tender Beauty is a fragile narcissus but nothing could be further from the truth. She is a sturdy narcissus with large flowers of a size as befits a good large-flowered narcissus.

Daffodil bulbs
I hear you think now, there is Carlos again with his Daffodils, isn’t he a little bit too much in love with Daffodil. Yes, I am, no problem to admit that but I really think the Daffodil is one of the most reliable bulbs.
Planting Daffodils:
Daffodils are planted in the fall (when the leaves fall from the trees), because they bloom in the spring. Make sure you plant them before the frost.
Before planting, loosen the soil well and mix in a special fertilizer for flower bulbs. Dig a trench a few centimetres deep, keeping a distance of about 5 to 10 centimetres between the bulbs to prevent overcrowding. Place the bulbs point-side up and press them firmly into the soil. Water them lightly immediately after planting, and continue to water regularly. Finally, make sure the soil is well-drained, as daffodils do not tolerate overly wet conditions.
Caring for daffodils
After flowering, you should cut off the withered flowers so that all the energy goes to the bulb. The bulb can then provide extra beautiful flowers in the following growing season. In this way, you ensure that you can enjoy your daffodils for years to come.
