Dutch Master Trumpet Daffodil

Narcissus ‘Dutch Master’ is in Division 1. It stands 18 – 20 inches tall and blooms in early to mid season with 4 ¼ inch flowers. The petals are bright yellow and wide. The corona is bright yellow and cylindrical with an expanded mouth. It is hardy in zones 3 – 8. The bulbs are toxic and will not be eaten by deer or rabbits. ‘Dutch Master’ is among the largest of the pure yellow trumpet daffodils available to Chicago-area gardeners. It creates ever-increasing sized clumps if planted in full sun and moderately well-drained soil. The name Narcissus comes from the Greek word for narcotic and is tied to the myth of a young man known as Narcissus who fell in love with his own reflection. When he drowned in the pool where he had been admiring himself, Narcissus flowers grew up around the pool.
