Paperwhite Bulbs

The all-time favorite bulb for indoor forcing is the Paperwhite Narcissus. Large clusters of pure white flowers arch above graceful, blue-green foliage, and their sweet, musky perfume fills a room with fragrance. We deliver bulbs that are ready to begin growing upon arrival. When bulbs are planted in early December, they will flower in 4 to 6 weeks with seldom a miss. To make a good thing even better, we select extra-large bulbs of Narcissus, which produce more bloom than you've ever seen on a Paperwhite. Our signature White Flower Farm linen bag filled with Paperwhite bulbs makes a memorable gift.

Shipment of Paperwhites begins in September and continues into January, with an occasional pause for foul weather. We suggest that plantings be started at 2- to 4-week intervals to keep the show running all winter. Bulbs may be held for weeks at room temperature (about 70°F) in a dark place (such as a closet), which allows plenty of flexibility in orchestrating displays for holidays or other special occasions.
