When planted properly, daffodils are low-maintenance, reliable bloomers, are you planting any in your garden this fall?
.
Planting time: In colder regions, plant daffodil bulbs in autumn after the first frost when the soil temperature is cooler but before it freezes. In warmer regions, plant after fall temperatures have become consistent and nights are cool.
.
Planting depth: 6 inches deep
.
Soil: Daffodils prefer well-drained soil where the bulbs can be relatively dry during summer when they are dormant. In heavier soil, it’s best to grow daffodils in raised beds.
.
Water: Some moisture is needed in fall after planting, in spring when plants are actively growing (1/2 to 1 inch of water per week), and after they have finished flowering until their leaves begin to turn yellow. Photo by Roger Foley
