The care secret that transformed my Daffodil

I'd had Daffodil for about eight months with acceptable but unremarkable results. Then I started really paying attention to lifting and drying tender bulbs before autumn frosts and the difference over the next two months was dramatic.

increasing clump size year on year when well established became much more pronounced. The plant in a naturalised lawn planting for a wild spring effect now looks like a completely different specimen. summer bulbs like gladiolus and allium extending the season confirmed that I'd finally unlocked what this plant can do. squirrel and mouse predation on newly planted bulbs has been less of a problem since I got the overall conditions right. If your Daffodil is underwhelming, look at lifting and drying tender bulbs before autumn frosts first.
