Narcissus 'Marion Pearce'

Narcissus 'Marion Pearce' is a study in precision and poise, a split-corona daffodil that has quietly earned its place among exhibition favourites. Its perfectly proportioned blooms present a harmonious interplay of colour, with broad, overlapping perianth segments in a clear, even yellow forming a smooth, luminous backdrop. At the centre, Narcissus 'Marion Pearce' reveals its defining feature—a finely divided corona, pressed back against the petals to create an elegant collar. This intricate structure shifts in tone from soft yellow at the base to a glowing yellow-orange at the edges, giving Narcissus 'Marion Pearce' a refined yet lively character. Flowering in mid to late spring, Narcissus 'Marion Pearce' brings a considered brightness to the garden just as the season gathers momentum.

With its modest height of around 30cm, Narcissus 'Marion Pearce' is particularly well suited to the front of borders, where its detail can be properly appreciated, or to pots and show displays where its form truly shines. The slender, grey-green foliage provides a quiet, elegant frame, allowing each bloom of Narcissus 'Marion Pearce' to take centre stage without distraction. Despite its exhibition pedigree, Narcissus 'Marion Pearce' sits comfortably in naturalistic plantings too, pairing beautifully with early perennials and other spring bulbs in soft yellows and warm apricot tones. For those who appreciate structure as much as colour, Narcissus 'Marion Pearce' offers a graceful and quietly distinctive presence in the spring garden.
