daffodils
as a powerful start to spring
The first shipments of daffodils immediately mark the start of Greenflor’s spring assortment. As soon as they arrive, the assortment instantly takes on a fresh, seasonal look. Designers, florists, and corporate buyers eagerly anticipate this every season, as the daffodil is the ultimate symbol of a new beginning. Its bright yellow color brings energy to displays and immediately draws attention within the assortment.
the story behind the daffodil
Thanks to the mild climate, the daffodil season in England develops gradually throughout the spring. This results in a stable and spread-out supply, which is important in the daffodil wholesale trade.
“In England, the daffodil season starts in the south thanks to the favorable climate and gradually moves north due to temperature differences, which ensures a nice spread in supply.” - Bram Kist, Purchaser & Relationship Manager, Greenflor
Many small English growers still cultivate daffodils with visible craftsmanship, resulting in strong stems and consistent quality. In England, the daffodil has also become a cultural icon and national symbol of spring and hope. At Greenflor, the season usually starts in mid-January and runs through April, depending on temperature and planning. This gives professional buyers a reliable basis for their seasonal planning.
daffodils as a spring magnet
With their sunny appearance, daffodils immediately attract attention in any presentation. They bring light, energy, and a fresh spring feeling to any concept. That is why daffodils fit effortlessly into spring campaigns, Easter collections, and retail promotions. In minimalist settings, they make a powerful yellow statement, while in rural concepts they appear natural and soft. This makes daffodils a permanent fixture in Greenflor's spring range.
from bulb to presentation
Growers plant daffodil bulbs in the fall for a vigorous spring bloom. The bulbs remain in the ground for three years and multiply naturally. After that, growers harvest them and replant them in groups of five to six bulbs. During the season, they carefully harvest the stems by hand, as mechanical harvesting is not possible due to weather conditions. This ensures that the flowers retain their firmness and quality. Growers then place the daffodils in a dry cold store to guarantee freshness.
Professionals can easily incorporate daffodils into field bouquets, mono bouquets, or project arrangements. Thanks to their recognizable appearance and stable volumes, they form a strong basis for any spring concept. This keeps the assortment dynamic and seamlessly aligned with seasonal demand.
