Narcissus, Daffodils
Daffodil is a favourite for its long life and
carefree, colourful blooms. Varieties are
available in a range of sizes and forms.
Flowers may be single or double, grow
singly on a stem or with multiple flowers per
stem, and height varies from 15—20 cm.
Daffodil Plant Care

Water your daffodils with 1/4 cup of water per week.

The best thing you can do for your Daffodil bulbs is to provide
them with a rich, well-drained soil.

After plants are finished flowering, cut back flower stalks but
allow the leaves to die back naturally,

When cut, daffodils should be kept alone in a vase, as their
stems secrete a fluid that promotes the wilting of other flowers.

Note that contact with the sap of daffodils may irritate skin or
aggravate skin allergies
