This is the true Grand Monarque. For at least 200 years this has been the king of the narcissus, with
up to 15 or more 1-3/4" florets of white with strong lemon cups, on strong stems and having an excellent fragrance. This is
a very large and vigorous plant making large strong bulbs. The parent of noteworthy offspring, this variety bears fertile pollen useful to the hybridizer. Season of bloom is later than other varieties of its type, helping to enhance cold hardiness. Bloom time here (coastal central California) is in March. Best in drier locations. |
