Narcissus ‘Jesimay’
Amaryllidaceae

This is a cultivar of the hoop-petticoat daffodil Narcissus bulbocodium. The parent grows in mediterranean France, Spain and Portugal, so is well adapted to naturalizing in California. This particular form has lovely pastel peach colored large flowers produced in profusion. These bulbs are summer deciduous and are small growers so they need to be planted where they are not overwhelmed by larger meadow or grassland plants.
