Hardy in Zones 8-10

(Paperwhite, Chinese Sacred Lily, Soleil d’Or)

These tender Narcissus are not hardy outdoors in most areas, and for indoor forcing do not need a cold period. plant the bulbs in any potting soil with the top just above the surface. Water well and keep the soil evenly moist. Place the pot in a sunny window. Flowers will appear within 4-6 weeks. They can also be grown in gravel and water (See planting instructions for forcing bulbs). Forced tender Narcissus are treated like annuals, as once they have finished blooming, they are discarded. In frost-free areas, they can be grown outside.
