FAQs

When is the best time to plant Narcissus bulbs?

The best time to plant Narcissus bulbs is in the autumn, before the ground freezes.

How deep should I plant the bulbs?

Plant the bulbs at least 10cm deep.

Can I plant them in pots?

Yes, Narcissus can be successfully grown in pots. Ensure the pot has good drainage and use a well-draining potting mix.

Do I need to water them regularly?

Keep the soil moist during the growing season, but avoid overwatering.

Should I remove the foliage after flowering?

Allow the foliage to die back naturally before deadheading or removing it. This allows the bulb to store energy for the next year.

Can I move the bulbs after they have flowered?

Yes, you can move the bulbs once the foliage has completely died back.

Where is the best place to plant them?

Plant in a location that gets plenty of sunlight and is sheltered from strong winds, with well-drained soil.

Troubleshooting

Bulbs failing to bloom.

Ensure bulbs were planted at the correct depth and in well-drained soil. Check for sufficient sunlight.

Yellowing foliage before blooming.

May be due to overwatering or poor drainage. Adjust watering habits and ensure soil drains well.

Plants are not flowering year after year.

Ensure bulbs are allowed to fully die back and store energy. Consider fertilizing in the autumn.
