Potted Daffodils
Daffodil ‘National Trust Joy’
The world-famous landscape garden at Stourhead, features a magnificent lake reflecting classical temples, mystical grottoes, and rare and exotic trees, which exist side by side with a Grade I listed 18th-century Neo-Palladian mansion.
In autumn 2023, we launched a new and exclusive Daffodil for the National Trust, called ‘National Trust Joy’. 5000 National Trust Joy bulbs were donated to Stourhead, and were planted by a team of volunteers in and around the visitor centre and carpark.
Named in honour of Octavia Hill, one of the founding members of the National Trust worked tirelessly to improve urban housing and protect green spaces. She believed that ‘the healthy gift of air and the joy of plants and flowers’ were vital in everyone’s life and no doubt, if she was alive today, Octavia would still be working to give urban communities access to nature.
National Trust ‘Joy’ has a stunning orange, short trumpet with classic Daffodill yellow petals. Its strong stems mean it’s perfect for cut flowers.
Daffodil ‘Wordsworth Golden’
Blue Diamond also named and launched another new and exclusive Daffodil ‘Wordsworth Golden’, in honour for Wordsworth’s House in Cumbria, also cared for by the National Trust.
Spring visitors will see these daffodils blooming.
National Trust ‘Wordsworth Golden’ is aptly named; The elegant iconic yellow trumpet and petals will burst in to flower from April to May.
Through sales generated from the National Trust Collection by Blue Diamond, a minimum of 10% of the retail sales price per product will be given to the National Trust to help look after nature, beauty and history for everyone, for ever.
