Narcissus Falcone

 'Narcissus Falconet' is a cultivar of the multi-flowered tazetta narcissus, known for its vibrant yellow flowers with an orange-red crown, strong fragrance, and a height of approximately 25-40 cm. Suitable for both open ground and potted and forced plants, it is grown for its beauty and ease of maintenance, not for its psychological narcissism.

  2. A popular multi-flowered daffodil variety belonging to the Tazetta group. Gardeners love it for its explosive brightness, low-maintenance nature, and stunning, sweetish fragrance. Unlike classic daffodils, Falconet produces a whole bouquet of 5–8 small flowers on a single stem.
