I’ve been purchasing bulbs from A.D.R. for many years. The quality is superior and the service fantastic. Chris and his family have always been prompt and accommodating. If you need it, Chris can find it! I wouldn’t shop anywhere else!

Narcissi Tazetta 'Paperwhite Ziva'
Paperwhite
Narcissus 'Ziva' is a tazetta daffodil, primarily suited for indoor forcing. It reaches 16 to 18 inches in height and produces clusters of pure white blooms per stem, with a flat, open cup. The flowers appear 3–4 weeks after planting, making them ideal for holiday displays and winter blooms.
Thriving in bright, indirect light, 'Ziva' prefers well-drained soil or water forcing on pebbles. It does not require a cold period, unlike most daffodils, and should be kept at temperatures around 60–65°F for optimal flowering. This variety is known for its strong fragrance and rapid bloom time, making it a favorite for indoor arrangements and seasonal décor.

Storage Tips
Store bulbs in a cool, dry spot with good air circulation and low humidity
Most bulbs can tolerate temperatures between 38 and 70 F
Protect from heat, frost and strong sunlight
Pre-cooled bulbs for the South must be planted immediately
Avoid These Common Pitfalls
Not sure if a bulb is viable? Look for bulbs that are firm to the touch
Bulbs hate "wet feet" - never plant in areas with poor drainage or standing water
Planting when the soil temperature is too warm is the primary cause of stunted blooms
Road salt and de-icing compounds are harmful to bulbs - avoid areas where plowed snow accumulates
Crop rotation is key - don't plant the same type of bulb in the same spot year after year to protect against Rhizoctonia
Don't plant too shallow - it's essential that bulbs are planted at least 3 times their height into the soil
Plant bulbs firmly in the soil with their pointy end up and basal plate down - not all bulbs will right themselves underground
Avoid areas that do not receive at least half a day of sun
Plant away from invasive tree and perennial root systems that can strangle bulb roots & compete for limited water and nutrition
