Narcissus 'Pipit' is a captivating jonquil daffodil that transforms beautifully as it blooms. Initially displaying luminous sulfur-yellow petals with funnel-shaped cups, the flowers gradually fade to bright white at the base and cups, creating a striking two-tone effect. This enchanting variety offers a sweet fragrance and slender, grass-like foliage, making it a perfect addition to spring gardens, borders, and containers.

Planting and Growing Information
Plant Narcissus 'Pipit' bulbs in fall, approximately 6 inches deep and 6 inches apart in well-drained soil. This adaptable variety thrives in USDA hardiness zones 5-9 and prefers full sun to partial shade locations. Mid-spring bloomers, these daffodils require minimal maintenance—simply allow foliage to die back naturally after flowering to ensure energy returns to the bulb for next season's display. Their compact size makes them perfect for borders, rockeries, containers, and naturalized areas.
