Description
Serve up cups of bright light on icy saucers for a spring tea party as your garden warms slowly after the winter cold. Narcissus 'Ice Follies' with their crimped large cups are filled with a tea of luminous lemon yellow as they flare from white outer petals so pristinely pure they glow like china. As the flower matures and nature drinks the bright yellow from the cups, they fade to pale alabaster. Ice Follies daffodils will return for its early to mid-spring tea party every year with more and more guests. This Narcissus spreads well and requires little care. Its fragrance also adds to the party feel.
