Daffodil 'Acropolis'

Daffodil 'Acropolis' is an elegant, double-flowering daffodil that produces pure white blooms with frilled orange-red centres. Growing to around 45 cm tall, it flowers in mid to late spring and adds a refined touch to garden borders, cottage gardens, and cut flower arrangements. 'Acropolis' thrives in full sun or partial shade and prefers well-drained soil. This hardy, low-maintenance bulb is ideal for naturalising in New Zealand gardens, returning reliably each year with fragrant, long-lasting blooms that are both deer- and rabbit-resistant.

Growing Daffodil Acropolis Successfully in NZ

Plant in autumn in well-drained soil with good sun exposure for best flowering. Incorporate compost or well-rotted manure to improve soil fertility. This cultivar suits temperate NZ climates and benefits from mulch to maintain soil moisture and temperature.

Daffodil Acropolis Care Tips

Water during dry periods but avoid waterlogged soil. Remove spent flowers to encourage energy storage in bulbs. Allow foliage to die back naturally before cutting to ensure strong flowering next year. Watch for common pests like slugs and snails.

Plant Size and Spacing

Grows up to 45 cm tall. Space bulbs 10-15 cm apart to allow full growth and reduce overcrowding, promoting good airflow and reducing disease risk.
