Large-cupped daffodils (Narcissus, Division 2) are among the most popular spring-flowering bulbs, known for their single, oversized blooms per stem. Their distinctive cups, which are more than one-third but less than equal to the length of the petals, create dramatic contrast in shades of yellow, white, pink, peach, and red.
Blooming in mid-spring, these daffodils thrive in full sun and well-drained soil, offering deer resistance, drought tolerance, and reliable perennial performance. Their varied cup shapes—flat, ruffled, or trumpet-like—add unique charm, making them ideal for borders, containers, and naturalized plantings.
