Grown for its wonderful fragrance, Narcissus Chinese Sacred Lily produces 5-10 small scented flowers per stem, each adorned with a small golden-yellow cup and pure white petals. Well-suited to forcing, this tender paperwhite daffodil usually blooms 3-5 weeks after planting. It can be grown outdoors in warm climates. Brought to the US by Chinese immigrants in the 1800s, the Chinese Sacred Lily has been used since then in New Year’s celebrations. A good display on Chinese New Year’s Day ensures good fortune for the coming year!
