FAQs
How deep should I plant these bulbs?
Plant the bulbs at a depth of approximately 10cm (4 inches).
When is the best time to plant them?
Bulbs should be planted in the autumn to ensure they establish well before the spring flowering season.
Can I mow the grass where my daffodils are planted?
You must avoid mowing the area until the foliage has completely died back, usually in June or July.
Are these daffodils safe for pets?
No, the bulbs and plant are harmful if eaten, and contact can cause skin irritation, so keep them away from pets and children.
Do they grow well in pots?
Yes, their compact 35cm height makes them ideal for containers and sunny windowsills.
Should I remove the yellowing leaves?
Only remove the foliage once it has turned fully brown and died back naturally in June or July.
Troubleshooting
Flowers are failing to bloom in the second year
Ensure foliage was not cut back too early. The leaves must die back naturally to store energy for the next season.
Bulbs are rotting in the ground
Check soil drainage; daffodils require moist, well-drained soil and will rot in waterlogged conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For optimal growth, plant your Daffodil Cornish Trelawney Gold bulbs in autumn. Choose a location with full sun or semi-shade and ensure the soil is moist but well-drained. Place each bulb at a depth of 10cm (4 inches) with 10cm (4 inches) of space between each bulb. If planting in grass, refrain from mowing that specific area until the foliage has completely turned yellow and died back, typically by late June or July. This phase is critical, as the leaves collect sunlight to store energy in the bulb for next year's bloom. Always wear gloves when handling the bulbs to prevent potential skin irritation.
