Features

notes
An old-fashioned variety of daffodil, Actaea bears a white ruff of petals surrounding a small orange cup rimmed with red. This presents a delicate and clean display in the border, providing a contrast with other coloured spring bulbs.
Insights

Plant in swathes where its scent can be appreciated, it’s also good for a wildflower meadow or woodland area as it’s said to be largely ignored by deer. Actaea is a recipient of the RHS AGM (Award of Garden Merit), for all round excellence.
