Description

If daffodils threw parties, Narcissus 'Chemeketa' would be the one everyone talks about afterwards. With cheerful yellow petals radiating from a large cup blushed in shades of pink—deeper at the rim, softer at the base. It’s a bloom that doesn’t shy away from mixing it up. Narcissus 'Chemeketa' is proof that colour coordination needn't mean playing it safe; it manages to be both charmingly unusual and effortlessly elegant. This exclusive large-cupped daffodil brings just the right amount of drama to the early spring stage.

Perfect for borders, cutting gardens or pots by the front door (where you can properly admire its flair), Narcissus 'Chemeketa' thrives in sun or part shade and rewards with reliably striking blooms. Its layered colouring gives the appearance of careful artistry—though in truth, it’s all down to nature doing what nature does best. Narcissus 'Chemeketa' has a quietly flamboyant character: not loud, not garish, but just interesting enough to stop you in your tracks. Plant it once, and you’ll look forward to its grand entrance every year. After all, spring wouldn’t be quite the same without a touch of flair from Narcissus 'Chemeketa'.

60 seconds: Daffodils

Plant Narcissus bulbs at a depth of roughly three times the height of the bulb. Always ensure that the pointed end faces upwards towards the soil surface. In borders or grass, daffodil bulbs should be planted at a distance of roughly twice their width apart.
