Care Instructions
Watering
Water well after planting, ensuring the soil is moist but not waterlogged. Once established, daffodils require minimal watering, thriving in moderate rainfall.
Fertilization
Fertilize in the spring with a balanced fertilizer (e.g., 10-10-10) to encourage strong blooms. Avoid over-fertilizing as it can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of flowers.
Weeding and Mulching
Keep the area around the bulbs weed-free to prevent competition for nutrients. Mulch after planting to help retain moisture, suppress weeds, and protect the bulbs from extreme temperatures.
Pest and Disease Control
Daffodils are generally resistant to most pests, but be on the lookout for aphids or slugs. Use insecticidal soap for aphids, and consider slug bait or natural predators for slugs. Daffodils are also relatively disease-resistant.
Harvesting
Daffodils can be cut for bouquets once they’ve fully opened. Cut the stems just above the leaves and place them in water immediately.
Storage
Short-Term: Store daffodils in a cool, dry place if you need to keep them before planting.
Long-Term: After blooming, allow the foliage to die back naturally before cutting it down. This helps store energy in the bulb for next season.
Culinary Uses
Daffodils are not edible and should not be consumed. However, their beautiful blooms are perfect for decorative purposes.
