Guía de cuidados

Plant bulbs in autumn (October-November) at 10-15 cm depth in well-drained soil. Full sun is essential for sturdy stems. Water during dry spells in the growing season, but keep the soil from becoming waterlogged. After flowering, let the foliage wither before removing it.

Consejos de poda

Remove the spent flower head but leave the stem and foliage until they have yellowed completely. This feeds the bulb for the following year. Optionally, lift the bulbs after the foliage dies and store them dry until autumn.

Narcissus pseudonarcissus

Daffodil

The Daffodil is one of the earliest spring bloomers, with distinctive yellow or white flowers that release a fresh, sweet scent. Blooming in March and April, daffodils naturalise easily in lawns and under trees. The bulbs are toxic to rodents, so they remain untouched.

Crocus vernus

Spring Crocus

The Spring Crocus is one of the very first flowers to open in February and March, in shades of purple, yellow, or white. The small chalice-shaped blooms often appear before the foliage has fully developed. Crocuses naturalise beautifully in lawns and are an early food source for bees after winter.
