Description

This unique bi-color is a stunner in the garden. The big flattened cup of rich orange makes a two-tier effect not seen on other daffodils. Unique, and always an eye-catcher.

Naturalizing Daffodils. Probably nothing in the gardening world is more foolproof and more rewarding than 'naturalizing' daffodils. Because unlike most other garden flowers, these fantastic plants are super-easy to plant in fall, they don't care about soil, as long as it's well-drained, and they'll bloom beautifully for you with absolutely no work every spring after you plant them. Best of all, daffodils increase over the years, each bulb developing into a blooming clump. All you have to do is pick the spots. The one thing to remember is that you won't be able to mow that area until the tops die down. Everything else takes care of itself. In a new or established wildflower meadow, the wildflower plants grow up around the daffodils hiding the fading foliage, so there's no work to do. And if you're planting wildflower seed, what could be easier that to pop in the bulbs when you have the ground already turned?

Comments about American Meadows Butterfly Daffodil Bulbs Orangery - Bag of 8:

All the bulbs came up, but not all bloomed. A freak hail storm (tennis-ball-sized hail) the day after they started blooming may have contributed--they got pretty beaten up. I also got one "mistake" bulb in my pack--one of the bulbs came up a very cute--but very non-matching--miniature daffodil.
