Bulb Season

Hi there folks. Id like to introduce you to the first Daffodil of the season. We dont have a great deal of daffys at work, and due to their location not all of them flower. Daffodils need an ammount of full sun in order to make enough food to produce a flower and store enough energy in their bulb to grow the next year. If they dont get enough sunlight, then they omit flowering in order to survive the next season. So when you plant your Daffodil bulbs, make sure you put them in a full to part sun position.

Also, if you are growing Daffodils for a cut flower, please try to avoid putting it in a vase with other flowers. Daffodil sap will kill other cut flowers in your display. Little trick I picked up in floristry. Jonquils will do the same thing.
