Narcissus pseudonarcissus - daffodil double mix
APPEARANCE : Double flowering varieties with multiple petals often in contrast shades. Long smooth straight stems.
USE IN : Plant below deciduous trees or group closely in pots for bright spring flowering colour. Enjoy indoors as a cut flower, trim stems just before buds open for longer vase life.
CLIMATE : Frost tolerant to sub-tropical
PLANTING :Daffodils are very tolerant of whatever soils they are planted in. Plant bulbs with the narrow end facing upward, cover with a good layer of mulch to help regulate soil temperature.
CARE : Once planted, water the soil to set the bulb in place. An occasional light watering is all that's needed until the first flowers appear. Water and feed weekly or if the soil becomes dry, give a good deep water (bulbs are generally at least 5 cms below the surface). Once flowering is finished leave plants to die back, it's not the prettiest sight but don't be tempted to trim the yellowing foliage. The nutrients are being drawn back into the bulbs for next year. When the bulbs die back completely remove spent foliage and leave in place for next season. Or remove for storage - gently dig up bulbs, wash soil away using water and a soft brush for stubborn spots. Place bulbs in a cool shady spot to dry, then store in a dark, well ventilated room. Paper bags are ideal, remember to label each variety!
