Description

Pheasant’s Eye Daffodil is a timeless heirloom variety treasured for its simple elegance, sweet fragrance, and natural beauty. Each bloom features crisp white petals surrounding a small golden-yellow cup edged in a delicate ring of red, creating a striking contrast that gives this daffodil its distinctive charm. Its graceful flowers bring a refined, cottage-garden appeal to borders, meadows, and naturalized landscapes.

Blooming later than many other daffodils, Pheasant’s Eye extends the spring season with a fresh display of color and perfume when other varieties are beginning to fade. Its lightly scented blooms attract attention in the garden and make lovely additions to cut flower arrangements. Easy to grow and dependable, this daffodil returns year after year with little maintenance and is naturally resistant to deer and rabbits.

Create drifts beneath trees, weave through perennial gardens, or allow to naturalize across the landscape, Pheasant’s Eye Daffodils offer old-fashioned charm, graceful beauty, and a delightful fragrance that has captivated gardeners for generations.

Planting Advice

Daffodils perform best in full sun to light shade.
Plant daffodils when temperatures have cooled in your area September through December. Once your daytime temperatures are in the 60’s or lower consistently, this is a good time to plant your daffodils.
Proper drainage is critical to the daffodils success. Amend your soil with top soil and organic matter such as compost, manure or peat most prior to planting. You soil should be light and easy to work with. The addition of Kelp Meal to your planting area will help the daffodil bulbs establish strong roots.
Large 14/16 cm daffodils should be planted 6-8” deep with the pointed side facing the sky. Miniature daffodils are often smaller bulbs and should be planted 3-4” deep, also with the pointed side up.
Space daffodils 4-6” apart when planting individual bulbs. For mass planting and brilliant bursts of color in the garden, plant the bulbs 2-4” apart in bouquet planting groups, trenches and garden beds.
Immediately after planting, water the daffodil planting area. This helps to eliminate air pockets. After the initial planting bulbs do not require additional watering in fall or winter and prefer to be kept dry.
Apply a 2” layer of mulch in late fall.

Contrast
Healthy

Cons:

This is such a fun find. I am generally not a daffodolil gal but, being a birder, and given the images on the HBF product page, I felt compelled to grab a pack. Now they are blooming and I am looking for more!

Excellently packaged for safe travel and perfectly healthy bulbs.

Pheasants' Eye Daffodil bulbs looked healthy on arrival and I planted immediately in mid-January. Only one has started to emerge from the ground. I expect the others to follow over the next few weeks. (It's mid-March now) I do look forward to them! They are supposed to be on the late end of the daffodil blooming spectrum, so I am not surprised that they are a bit slow.

healthy bulbs arrived on time!

I've none. Great company!

My bulbs arrived well packaged and on time. I planted them the very next day. The leaves are showing themselves, healthy and strong - I can't wait to see these childhood favorite blooms as they arrive. Thanks for being such a great company - there is so much more in the packaging than one can imagine ??
