Planting Daffodil bulbs

Plant Daffodil bulbs in autumn, at one-and-a-half times their own depth, slightly deeper in light soils or grass. Daffodil bulbs prefer well-drained soil that is moist in the growing season in spring, in full sun or light dappled shade.

Daffodil are relatively low maintenance and will come back year-on-year. They benefit from being deadheaded as the flowers fade, and allow the leaves to die down naturally so that the bulbs have nutrients to come back the following year.
