The botanical name of Paperwhites is Narcissus papyraceus and the plants are flowering bulbs that are known for their fragrant clusters of tiny white, yellow, or orange flowers. Also the narcissus genus actually includes jonquils and daffodils. The paperwhite plant can be force to bloom indoors in the winter anywhere, or the bulbs can be planted outdoors in fall to grow as a spring perennial in certain regions.

Hi,

Here’s a quick guide to growing paperwhites in soil:
  1. Pot: Use a shallow container with drainage holes.
  2. Soil: Fill halfway with well-draining potting soil.
  3. Plant: Place bulbs (pointed end up) close together, cover the bottom half with soil.
  4. Water: Water thoroughly, then keep the soil moist but not soggy.
  5. Light: Place in bright, indirect sunlight.
  6. Bloom: Expect blooms in 4-6 weeks. Move to a cooler spot to extend blooming.
Enjoy your fragrant flowers!

Thanks!
