Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Narcissus 'Martinette' bulbs thrive, follow these planting guidelines:
- Timing: Plant in the autumn months before the ground freezes.
- Depth: Bury bulbs at a depth approximately two to three times their own height.
- Spacing: Space bulbs 10-15cm apart to allow enough room for the 15cm spread.
- Soil: Ensure the area has excellent drainage. If planting in clay-heavy soil, add grit or sand to the planting hole.
- Sunlight: They are flexible but perform best when given at least partial sun throughout the day.
- Care: After flowering, allow the foliage to yellow and wither naturally; this allows the bulb to store energy for the following season. Do not tie or cut the leaves while they are still green.
