Narcissus 'Break Out' is not a daffodil for fading politely into the background. This distinctive split-crown variety makes its entrance with broad outer petals in creamy white to soft primrose, framing a deeply cut cup that opens out flat against the bloom for an exotic, almost orchid-like effect. The colouring adds to the drama, with the divided cup glowing in shades of yellow and orange, sometimes touched with a gentle blush that softens the whole display. Flowering in mid spring, Narcissus 'Break Out' brings a freshness and originality that feels just a little bit unexpected, which is precisely its charm. Each flower has a generous, expressive form, giving Narcissus 'Break Out' a lively presence in borders, pots and spring arrangements.

There is something rather artistic about Narcissus 'Break Out', as though each bloom has been painted with a freer hand than most. Plant Narcissus 'Break Out' where its unusual shape can be admired properly, perhaps near a path or in a container by the door, and it will quickly earn a second glance or two. It combines beautifully with softer whites, pale yellows and apricot tones, but has enough personality to carry a planting on its own. Narcissus 'Break Out' is an excellent choice for anyone who enjoys spring bulbs with a slightly unconventional streak. Elegant yet expressive, Narcissus 'Break Out' offers a fresh twist on the classic daffodil and proves that spring need not always play by the rules.
