Narcissus ‘Shrike’

Narcissus 'Shrike' looks like a cross between a daffodil and a whirligig with its ruffled salmon pink split corona.

Narcissus ‘Shrike’ is a crazy cultivar that looks like a cross between a daffodil and a whirligig. The ruffled salmon pink split corona is reflexed backwards lying against the creamy white petals. Makes for a cool effect and something different from the genus. Daffodils are disease and pest resistant and, planted in full to part sun, will come back year after year with ever expanding clumps.
