Narcissus 'Erlicheer'

Bring the beauty and fragrance of spring into your home with the exquisite Narcissus 'Erlicheer'.

This stunning daffodil produces clusters of delicate, double flowers in soft creamy-white shades with pale buttery-yellow centres. Each stem carries multiple blooms with a wonderfully rich, sweet fragrance, creating a beautiful display both indoors and in the garden.

Perfect for growing in pots and containers, Erlicheer is particularly well suited to indoor forcing for an early display of flowers. It also makes a lovely addition to garden borders, patios and spring arrangements.

With its elegant, ruffled flowers and gorgeous perfume, Erlicheer is a wonderful choice for anyone looking to enjoy something a little different from the traditional yellow daffodil.

How to Grow Erlicheer Indoors

1. Fill a pot with peat-free compost, ensuring there are drainage holes.

2. Position the bulbs with their pointed ends facing upwards, leaving a little space between them. Cover lightly with compost, with the tips close to the surface.

3. Water gently, keeping the compost moist but never waterlogged.

4. Allow the bulbs to establish roots in cool conditions before bringing them into a brighter indoor position. The length of this stage depends on whether the bulbs have been specially prepared for forcing.

5. Once growing strongly, keep them in a cool, bright location away from direct heat to help prolong flowering.

Top tip: Display your Erlicheer daffodils somewhere you can enjoy their wonderful fragrance, such as a hallway or living room.

Growing Erlicheer Outdoors

Plant bulbs in autumn, approximately 10–15 cm deep and 10 cm apart, in well-drained soil.

Choose a sunny or partially shaded position in a border, container or sheltered garden bed.

After flowering, allow the foliage to die back naturally to help the bulbs store energy for the following year.

Perfect for Schools and Growing Projects

Erlicheer daffodils can also be used for hands-on growing activities, helping children explore how bulbs develop roots, shoots and flowers.
