Daffodil Plant - Narcissus Pseudonarcissus

Daffodil Plant is a perennial bulbous plant native to Europe and North Africa. It is renowned for its beautiful, bright yellow flowers with trumpet-shaped centers. Daffodils typically bloom in the spring and range from pale yellow to deep golden hues.

Plant History

They have a long and storied history dating back to ancient Greece, where they were believed to be a sign of love. In Roman mythology, the narcissus flower is associated with the story of Narcissus, a beautiful youth who falls in love with himself and becomes the flower that bears his name. In modern times, they have come to symbolize rebirth and new beginnings, making them a popular choice for springtime decorations and gifts.

Daffodil Plants Are Relatively Easy To Grow

Daffodils are relatively easy to grow and care for, making them popular for gardeners of all skill levels. They prefer well-drained soil and full sun. They should be planted in the fall, ideally between September and November, and spaced 3-6 inches apart.

Plant Requirements

After planting, the bulbs should be watered thoroughly until spring, when they sprout. Once the flowers bloom, they should be left alone until their foliage completely dies.

Uses

Daffodils have several uses and benefits beyond their aesthetic appeal. They have been used in traditional medicine to treat various ailments, including respiratory problems and skin irritations. In addition, daffodils contain several compounds that have been studied for their potential anti-cancer properties. Some research has suggested that these compounds may inhibit the growth and spread of certain types of cancer cells.

This Is How Your Plants Will Look upon Delivery

Planting bare-root perennials is best in any season if they are dormant; we only sell dormant plants. Planting them year-round is also excellent if you can get dormant perennials. When your bare-root perennials arrive, soak the roots in water for a few hours to rehydrate them. Lant by digging a hole wide enough to spread the roots comfortably and deep enough to place the top portion crown (where the roots meet the stem) at or slightly above ground level. Position the plant in the hole, backfill with native soil, and gently firm the soil around the roots—water well after planting to settle the soil around the plant and eliminate air. Apply a 2-3 inch layer of mulch to keep weeds at bay and moisture locked in, keeping the mulch away from the crown. Irrigate plants regularly during the first few weeks of drought; never water in full sun, and water late in the evenings to ensure the roots are established well. Fertilize sparingly in the first year, using a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in subsequent years as needed.
