Know before you buy
Naturalizing means these bulbs are specifically selected to multiply and spread on their own over time. When planted in favorable conditions, they will return and expand into larger drifts each spring without needing to be replanted.
These bulbs should be planted in the fall before the ground freezes. They require a period of cold temperatures during the winter to trigger their blooming cycle in the spring.
Yes, daffodils are naturally resistant to voles, gophers, and deer. The bulbs contain compounds that are toxic to these animals, making them a reliable choice for gardens prone to burrowing pests.
You should leave the foliage alone until it turns yellow and dies back naturally. The leaves are busy absorbing sunlight to store energy in the bulb for next year's growth, so cutting them prematurely can weaken the plant.
These daffodils perform best in full sun to part shade. While they can tolerate some shade, they will produce the most vibrant blooms and multiply more effectively when they receive at least a few hours of direct sunlight each day.
This mix contains a curated selection of Narcissus varieties that differ in color, flower size, and bloom time. By including different varieties, the mix ensures a longer display of color in your garden from early to mid-spring.
