In general, the narcissus is a bulbous herbaceous plant, of a perennial type, with spring flowering. The bulb also emits small roots with which it anchors to the ground. Narcissus bulbs can have different shapes, usually they are oval-pear-shaped, at the limit sub-globose. They are covered with a thin brown tunic, which protects them from the rot that is generated in the soil. An erect stem is generated from the bulb, which can have lengths ranging from 20 to 70 cm. This is formed by long linear-lanceolate leaves, wrapped in a ribbon to form a light green sheath of thick consistency.

Care: Immediately after planting the narcissus bulbs, we can proceed with a good watering. This will be the first and only time that we will give water to our underground bulbs in the autumn-winter period. The narcissus is a very resistant plant, which does not particularly suffer from attacks by parasitic insects.

Sowing: The best time to plant narcissus bulbs is from October to December, before the frosts arrive. The bulb must be buried with the head facing upwards at a depth of about 7-8 cm. The distance between one bulb and another must be at least 25 cm. If grown in pots, however, they can be clustered close together. In this way, a lush and beautiful plant can be obtained.
