Designed for gardeners looking to add a unique aesthetic to their spring landscape, these Daffodil Rainbow Butterfly bulbs offer a distinct split-cup bloom that mimics the appearance of a butterfly. They are an ideal choice for adding vibrant, multi-coloured interest to borders, containers, or naturalized lawns. While these bulbs are versatile and easy to grow in well-drained soil, gardeners should note that they require consistent moisture throughout their growing season to ensure the best possible bloom performance.

Check soil moisture levels; if the soil was too dry during the winter or waterlogged, the bulb may have failed. Ensure future planting sites have excellent drainage.
Ensure the bulbs were planted at the correct depth (10-15cm). Shallow planting can leave bulbs vulnerable to temperature fluctuations.
Plant these bulbs in the autumn for a spring display. Dig a hole approximately 10-15cm deep, placing the bulb with the pointed end facing upward. Ensure the soil is well-drained and enriched with organic matter. If planting in containers, use a quality bulb compost and ensure the pot is elevated slightly to aid drainage. During the growing season, keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. After the flowers have faded, leave the foliage to die back naturally for at least six weeks; this allows the plant to store energy in the bulb for the following year's growth.
