Multiple fragrant blooms emerge from a single stem, a trait that sets this narcissus apart from single-flowered varieties and amplifies its impact in small spaces. The compact growth habit means you can tuck these bulbs into tight quarters without worry about overcrowding. Hardiness through zone 3 ensures survival even in cold winters, while the partial sun tolerance gives you flexibility in placement around existing plantings.
Geranium Narcissus is grown primarily as an ornamental flowering plant. Its fragrant blooms are valued for spring garden displays, and the multiple flowers per stem make it excellent for cutting arrangements where you can bring its sweet scent indoors.
No timeline data available yet for this variety.
Plant bulbs in fall, typically 4 to 6 weeks before the first hard frost when soil temperatures drop to 55 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit. This timing allows roots to establish before winter dormancy.
No formal pruning is required. After blooming finishes, allow foliage to remain until it yellows naturally; this feeds the bulb for next season's flowers. You can remove dead flower stems once petals drop.
