Through the years I've tried just about everyone for bulbs but A.D.R. is tops. It's a family run business and the service levels and expertise are as good as the product they sell. My clients rave about the results we get with A.D.R. and that makes me happy.

Narcissus ‘Flower Record’ is a large‑cupped daffodil, reaching 14 to 18 inches in height. It produces broad, star‑shaped white petals surrounding a smooth, funnel‑shaped cup of deep, vivid orange, creating a bold, classic contrast in the spring garden. The blooms appear in mid‑spring and are lightly fragrant, making them suitable for fresh arrangements as well as landscape display.
Thriving in full sun to part shade, ‘Flower Record’ prefers well‑drained soil and is deer‑resistant, rabbit‑resistant, and drought‑tolerant, offering dependable performance in borders, naturalized areas, and mixed plantings.

Planting: Plant bulbs in fall, 6 inches deep and 4 to 6 inches apart, with the pointed end up. These daffodils are ideal for mass plantings or formal borders.
Location: Full sun to partial shade. They bloom best with at least 6 hours of sunlight daily.
Soil: Well-drained, moderately fertile soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0–7.0). Enrich with compost or leaf mold.
Watering: Water after planting and during active spring growth. Once foliage yellows, reduce watering—bulbs prefer dry summer dormancy.
Temperature: Hardy in USDA zones 3–8. Requires a winter chill to bloom reliably.
Fertilization: Apply compost or a low-nitrogen fertilizer in fall and again in early spring.
Pruning: Deadhead spent blooms to prevent seed formation. Allow foliage to die back naturally to recharge the bulb.
Propagation: Naturalizes by offsets. Divide clumps every 4 to 5 years in summer when dormant.
Pest & Disease: Deer- and rodent-resistant. Good drainage prevents bulb rot.
