Dainty Elka is a welcome sight in spring with her elegant ivory flowers and long cream trumpets that gently fade to white. The delicate blooms are long-lasting with a subtle fragrance that is best enjoyed close up in containers. Elka makes a perfect cut flower for sophisticated bouquets with other white or soft blue spring flowers.
This petite variety prefers well drained, moderately fertile soil in full sun. Plant bulbs in early autumn at about twice their own depth, 7-10cm apart, adding plenty of organic matter first. Deadhead faded flowers and remove foliage only once it has died back. Like all narcissi, Elka benefits from an application of general fertiliser in spring.
Elka is perfect for the front of borders and container displays with other daffodils and spring bulbs like crocuses and early tulips. She looks beautiful underplanted with hazy forget-me-nots and is ideal as part of a white spring border design. Elka will happily naturalise in lawns and under deciduous trees.
