Pink Daffodil Collection

With non-traditional daffodils in such high demand, local gardeners are pleasantly surprised to see recent prices so low. According to industry insiders, an abundant crop of daffodils this year has created a surplus, and ultimately, lower costs for the bulbs.

For example, Breck's Pink Daffodil Collection contains five bulbs each of five premium Dutch varieties, plus five giant Chromacolor bulbs as a free gift.

Pink daffodils are often placed among fragrant, pastel hyacinths or right next to contrasting yellow daffodil varieties for maximum impact. The varieties included with Breck's Pink Daffodil Collection bloom on sturdy 16-20" stems, making them perfect for front borders and cut-flower arrangements.

"The Chromacolor Daffodil blossoms exceeded my expectations," said Dolores Bates of Paradise, CA. "The blossoms were huge and I was amazed at its deep pink color, which held up for days." She went on to explain that Chromacolor Daffodils have a longer bloom period than other varieties in her display, the pink colour only intensifying with age. Zones 3-8.

This collection includes 5 each of the following varieties:

• Pink Charm: A pink-rimmed, soft white cup is surrounded by beautifully formed, pure white outer petals. The first in the collection to bloom, sensational 3-4" flowers arrive in early to mid spring.
• Mon Cherie: Colourfast, 4" flowers feature demure white petals and a large, ruffled, pink cup. Its long blooming period starts in mid spring, and the hardy bulbs naturalize and multiply each year.
• Accent: The first true pink daffodil ever introduced. In mid spring, snow-white outer petals show off a prominent, funnel-shaped cup that's salmon-pink with a frilly rim. Excellent for naturalizing and drift planting.
• Romance: One of the most decorated daffodils of them all, Romance has received four Awards of Merit from the U.K.'s Royal Horticultural Society. A unique variety, it sports a short, funnel-shaped, loosely ribbed cup of bright pink with darker flushes. Blooms in mid spring.
• Pink Radiance^™: Lush, double, 4" blooms are composed of white petals surrounding clusters of shorter pink petals. Flowers appear in mid to late spring and last 15 days or longer! Great for bouquets.
• FREE GIFT! 5 Chromacolor Daffodils: Award-winning Chromacolor is the largest pink daffodil, with nearly 5" blooms atop 18-20" stems. The extra-large, wide corona deepens in colour over the blooming period. A wonderful choice for a focal point or for backs of borders. Blooms in mid spring.
