I have worked with A.D.R. Bulbs for almost 5 years now, and my company has sourced bulbs with them for longer than that. Communication is great - from ordering, to deliveries, to follow-ups on final product. I love the quality of the product as well as the service. We plant nearly 100,000 bulbs and A.D.R. keeps the whole process easy for us!

Narcissus 'Dutch Master' is a trumpet daffodil, reaching 16 to 18 inches in height. It produces large, golden-yellow blooms, with a prominent, flared trumpet that creates a classic daffodil silhouette. The flowers appear in mid-spring and are lightly fragrant, making them excellent for naturalizing, borders, and cut arrangements.
Thriving in full sun to part shade, 'Dutch Master' prefers well-drained soil and is deer-resistant, rabbit-resistant, and drought-tolerant. It naturalizes well, forming expanding clusters over time. Introduced in 1938, this variety has become the gold standard for yellow daffodils, replacing the heirloom 'King Alfred' as the preferred choice for large-flowered trumpet types. Of our 850+ varieties, Dutch Master is the overall best seller each and every year.

Planting: Plant bulbs in fall, 6 inches deep and 4 to 6 inches apart, with the pointed end up. Trumpet daffodils produce one large bloom per stem, so spacing allows each flower to shine.
Location: Full sun to partial shade. They bloom best with at least 6 hours of sunlight daily.
Soil: Well-drained, moderately fertile soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0–7.0). Enrich with compost or leaf mold.
Watering: Water after planting and during active spring growth. Once foliage yellows, reduce watering—bulbs prefer dry summer dormancy.
Temperature: Hardy in USDA zones 3–8. Requires a winter chill to bloom reliably.
Fertilization: Apply compost or a low-nitrogen fertilizer in fall and again in early spring.
Pruning: Deadhead spent blooms to prevent seed formation. Allow foliage to die back naturally to recharge the bulb.
Propagation: Naturalizes by offsets. Divide clumps every 4 to 5 years in summer when dormant.
Pest & Disease: Deer- and rodent-resistant. Good drainage prevents bulb rot.
