Narcissi 'Galilee'

FOR POT OR CUT FORCING

Storage after arrival 

Since the bulbs are treated they can only be stored for a few days at 63°F under well ventilated conditions.                                 

Planting/Forcing                   

Grow plants pot to pot on the bench.  Use a well drained, pH 6-7 sterilized soil.  Plant: 3 bulbs in a 5" pot; 4-5 bulbs in a 6" pot; 7-9 bulbs in an 8" pot. Forcing time is generally 3-6 weeks depending on time of planting.                                                                                                                                      

Watering, Fertilizer, Light Requirements                             

Keep planting medium moist but do not over water. Fertilization is neither harmful nor is it required for paperwhites in a greenhouse. Use a medium light (5000 ft. candle) intensity greenhouse that is well ventilated.                                                                                                                    

Temperature

Use 60-63°F night temperatures. Lower temperatures can be used but the plant will take longer to reach market stage.                                            

Height Control for Pots

In order to reduce excessive elongation of the flower stalk and leaves of "Ziva" the plants can be sprayed to run off with 2000 ethephon (Florel) when the shoots are 4-5" long. A 2000 ppm Florel solution is one pint in 2.5 gallons and this treats about 500 6" pots. It is important that the foliage be dry at the time of treatment. Also, do not wet the foliage for 12 hours after treatment - late afternoon is the best time to spray. Treatment can delay flowering by 2-4 days.                                                                                                        

Marketing, Harvesting and Storage                       

Forcers - the plants should be marketed with the shoots 8-10" tall and the flowers are visible. Do not wait until they begin to show color.

Narcissi Paperwhites Kit

Planting Instruction

Press the bulbs halfway down into the planting mixture, taking care that they do not touch each other. Spread some pebbles over the soil, leaving the tips of the bulbs exposed. Place in full daylight and keep moist. Do not overwater. In 6 to 8 weeks you'll have a mass of pure white, bultiple blooming marcissi in your room. 

Narcissi Paperwhites Kit- Delft Blue

Planting Instructions

Half fill the bowl with compost and place the bulbs within the pot. Cover with the remaining compost so that the bulb tips are just below the surface. Give them water. They prefer to be kept on the cool side (65 degrees). Check your bulbs daily to see if they need more water. When the bulbs have rooted well, you may bring the pot into a light and warm room. After 2 to 4 weeks, you may expect them to bloom. Once the plants flower, they will last longer if moved out of direct sunlight to a cool spot with indirect or diffused light.
