Variety traits

Narcissus Plant Height

Narcissus L.

The height of a Narcissus is defined as the distance from the soil surface to the top of the leafless flower stalk (scape). This parameter is a key varietal trait, ranging from 8–10 cm in dwarf forms to 60 cm in tall-growing varieties.

In the reference 28 varieties crop Daffodil, where this is mentioned in the description.

The trait is measured in centimeters and is critical for the classification and utilization of a variety. Dwarf forms, such as members of the Bulbocodium group, reach 8–20 cm, while classic garden groups, including Trumpet and Large-cupped narcissi, have flower stalks 30–60 cm in height.

In cultivation, plant height determines the sphere of use: cut flowers require long, sturdy stalks, while landscape design benefits from varietal diversity in height to create tiered compositions. When evaluating tall-growing varieties, the resistance of the flower stalk to lodging caused by environmental factors is also taken into account.
