Daffodil Dutch Master is a stunning golden daffodil that has become a garden favourite due to its vibrant blooms and reliable growth. This bulbous, deciduous perennial features strap-shaped, mid-green leaves and large, rich golden-yellow flowers that can reach up to 4 ½ inches (11cm) across. The flowers are characterised by their flared, toothed trumpet, adding an elegant touch to any garden setting. Blooming abundantly in April, Daffodil Dutch Master is a free-flowering cultivar that brightens up city and courtyard gardens, cottage gardens, or any landscape that benefits from its cheerful presence. Holding the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit, this daffodil is prized for its beauty and performance.
Daffodil Dutch Master is easy to grow and requires minimal care, making it perfect for gardeners of all levels. To plant, position the bulbs at a depth of 1½ to twice their height, ensuring they have consistent moisture during the growing season for optimal growth. Unlike many garden plants, it requires no pruning; simply allow the leaves to fully die down before mowing the surrounding grass. This approach ensures the bulb gathers enough nutrients for the next flowering season. Over time, if the clumps become congested, they can be divided once the plant has completely died down, helping maintain vigorous growth. Whether used in mass plantings or as individual accents, Daffodil Dutch Master provides a burst of colour and classic charm year after year.
