Description: Although daffodils are mostly yellow, combinations of yellow, white, cream, pink and lately even russet occur in various types. Many are delicately scented. The flowers are long- lasting.By planting different cultivars, a long flowering season is possible, with later-blooming cultivars succeeding earlier ones.
Planting Instructions: Daffodils are among the most versatile of all flowering plants as they can be used in the border, in a woodland setting, as a flowering pot plant or as cut flowers. A spectacular sight is of daffodils growing amidst shade lawn under trees.Plant daffodils only in autumn, when the nights have started to cool. Do not plant after 21 June, which is too late in the season for them to catch up. Before planting daffodil bulbs, give each one a gentle squeeze. Discard any bulbs that feel soft. Plant the bulbs so that they have about 5cm of soil above the neck. Space them about 10cm apart.
Care: They provide excellent cut flowers, the stem can be cut just above the bulb when the bud is still closed and showing only a faint trace of colour. The daffodils will flower again next year, provided you feed them after flowering.You may leave your daffodils in the ground to rest during summer as long as drainage is good. After 4 or 5 years the bulbs will have formed many offsets and they will become overcrowded. Lift them in early summer when the foliage has started to yellow.
