Description

Double daffodils are still not common, but just as easy to grow as the others. And look at the results! Lovely, rounded flowers that remind most people of camellias or gardenias. A garden of these is unforgettable, and theyll make your neighbors think you're a real daffodil expert.

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?

Planting & Care

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?

About the Wild Daffodils: Like wild tulips which are more the size of crocus, most of the wild daffodils are tiny too. They're generally small wildflowers that have been hybridized by the Dutch into the big tall beauties we know today.

Unlike tulips which are native to Central Asia, daffodils are European wildflowers, native to areas of France, Spain and Portugal.

Holland is not the ancestral home of any bulb flowers. But it's the home of almost all the hybrids, since the Dutch hybridizers have not only created thousands of new flowers gardeners love, they've developed a huge national industry that supplies bulbs to gardeners worldwide.

To a wild gardener, of course, the original un-hybridized species (and their close hybrids) are all interesting, and even better, they're all dependably perennial. Plant them once, and they're there forever. Unlike the hybrids which develop bigger and bigger clumps each year, and have to be divided every few seasons for good bloom, the wild species simply spread, like they do in the wild. So there is no maintenance for the wild bulbs, once you get them established.

Here are the major wild species:

  • Narcissus tazetta
  • Narcissus triandrus
  • Narcissus pseudonarcissus
  • Narcissus jonquilla
  • Narcissus poeticus recurvus
  • Narcissus clyclamineus'

So pretty

"These are so cute. Some of the fuller ones tend to bend in the wind but I don't mind because it gives me the excuse to cut them and bring them inside to enjoy."

— Hann (5/5)

What is not to love? such cheery daffodils

"OMG so pretty. I was so happy to these these daffodils pop up this spring. Hope to see them again and again every year."

— GH (5/5)

Beautiful and long lasting blooms

"I ordered and planted these a little late for New England, I was lucky that there was some warm weather towards the end of October. I was thrilled that I could still order these bulbs from American Meadows at that time of year. They came up nicely in the spring, despite squirrels digging in the ground around them. They were absolutely beautiful, healthy and very long lasting. Thank you!"

— Kathy (5/5)

Bright, cheerful daffodils!!

"These are a great selection of daffodils! I've really enjoyed the color they bring to our yard and their beauty. I have not had any trouble with them, they have always been healthy and tough. I would definitely recommend them!"

— Heidi E. (5/5)

Wonderful Spring and Easter Display

"We bought our first house in October and I was excited to try planting bulbs for the first time. Our house is in a very rural area with lots of deer, so I started with Daffodils as they were listed as deer resistant. We have had lots of rain and cold and it was so fun to see those bright yellow spots of color in an otherwise dreary landscape. I am looking forward to planting spring bulbs and more this fall! A friend recommended American Meadows to me and I have never been so pleased with online ordering as with your products. Thank you for brightening up my garden."

— Sandi G. (5/5)

I would recommend these to others!

"I love to garden but I also like "easy care" and perennials. These daffodils all grew and all bloomed beautifully the first year. I am so excited to see what next year will bring!"

— Ada (5/5)
