More About Us

The winter growing of scented narcissi on the near sub-tropical Isles of Scilly is one of the last thriving cottage industries in the country.

The flowers are grown by around 40 family growers who coax these exquisite multi-headed, fragrant blooms from Lilliputian fields scattered across the Scillonian archipelago, only 28 miles from the coast of Cornwall.

The flowers are grown naturally in the open-air and are one of the few flowers grown commercially that are scented. And what wonderful scents! So much so that three of the world's leading 'Noses' have recently visited the islands to 'capture' the scent of the some of the most popular varieties of Isles of Scilly narcissi.

We grow approximately 25 varieties throughout our season, which normally runs from October to March.
