Gardener’s Tip

Plant bulbs between September and December, around 8 cm deep in well-drained soil in a sunny or lightly shaded position. Daffodils are extremely hardy and perform well in most soil types, making them ideal for low-maintenance planting schemes.

For best results, plant in groups or drifts to create a bold, natural display. Wear gloves when handling bulbs, as they may cause skin irritation and can be harmful if ingested by pets. Allow foliage to die back naturally after flowering so the bulbs can store energy for strong blooms the following season.
