Description

The daffodil heralds the start of the garden season with its bright yellow trumpet-shaped flowers in March and is one of the most reliable bulb flowers. It readily naturalizes, reappearing year after year in increasingly dense clumps. All parts of the plant are toxic, which deters rodents and makes it a good protective plant for tulips.

Care instructions

Plant the bulbs from September to November about 10–15 cm deep in well‑draining soil in a sunny to partially shaded spot. Allow the foliage to yellow and die back completely after flowering before removing it—do not cut it back. Every few years you can divide dense clumps after the foliage has died back and replant them.
