We love the selection of bulbs available from A.D.R. The variety is great, the quality is excellent and the price is fair. However, the best part of working with A.D.R is the customer service from Chris, Walter and all of the team. They go out of their way to make sure ours needs are met.

Narcissi Miniature 'Tete Deluxe'

Daffodil

Narcissus 'Tete Deluxe' is a double-flowered version of the beloved 'Tete a Tete' daffodil, reaching 8 to 10 inches in height. It produces fully double, canary-yellow blooms, creating a lush, ruffled appearance. The flowers appear in early to mid-spring, often blooming even earlier than 'Tete a Tete', making them a standout among miniature daffodils. Thriving in full sun to part shade, 'Tete Deluxe' prefers well-drained soil and is deer-resistant, rabbit-resistant, and drought-tolerant. It naturalizes well, forming expanding clusters over time. This variety is ideal for rock gardens, borders, and containers, where its compact size and abundant blooms create a cheerful display.

Growing and Maintenance Tips for Narcissi Miniature 'Tete Deluxe'

Planting: Plant bulbs in fall, 4 to 6 inches deep and 3 to 5 inches apart, with the pointed end up. These daffodils are ideal for naturalizing in meadows, rock gardens, and woodland edges.
Location: Full sun to partial shade. Many species thrive under deciduous trees where spring light is abundant.
Soil: Well-drained, moderately fertile soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0–7.0).
Watering: Water after planting and during active spring growth. Once foliage yellows, reduce watering—bulbs prefer dry summer dormancy.
Temperature: Hardy in USDA zones 4–9, depending on species. Most require a winter chill to bloom reliably.
Fertilization: Apply compost or a low-nitrogen fertilizer in fall and again in early spring.
Pruning: Allow foliage to die back naturally to recharge the bulb. Remove spent flower stalks for tidiness.
Propagation: Naturalizes by offsets and self-seeding. Divide clumps every 4 to 6 years in summer when dormant.
Pest & Disease: Deer- and rodent-resistant. Good drainage prevents bulb rot.
