Interestingly, it is only the solid yellow ones with which this occurs. Any ideas as to cause? Thanks in advance! Normally, rodents, bunnies, deer, etc. According to some sources, deer usually leave a ragged cut when chewing plants. Rabbits can leave a clean cut, usually at a bit of an angle. Groundhogs may also leave a clean cut. Some birds, such as crows, have been known to clip off flowers in general and just leave them on the ground.
Look around for signs of fur, feathers, tracks, etc. Many of my daffodils are not flowering but their leaves are coming up. I thought this was a sign to separate them. When I dug them up there were many small baby bulbs which separated and will replant. Is not flowering a sign that they need to be separated? If not, what is the problem? Unfortunately, there is no one problem—or at least no single one we can identify. Daffodils fail to bloom when or if they.
I usually leave them in the ground. If I dig them up how would one know which is the blind ones. The ones that have bloomed should keep their flowers for a little while after blooming, so keep an eye on them and mark which are which before digging! We have an abundance of daffodils that are quite lovely. I notice that the bloom, especially as it starts to fade, has somewhat of a bulge under the petals. Can these be planted, and therefore, will I realize more flowers next spring?
Those are likely the daffodil seed pods. Its mid-April and my daffodils were all accidentally pulled out and leaves stripped. If I replant now will they come back this spring?
Or should I replant now and just wait till next year? Daffodil bulbs have roots like most plants so something so disruptive as pulling them out has done them in, certainly for this year.
So yours have been compromised. To be on the safe side, that is, to have flowers next spring, you might want to buy new bulbs in the fall and plant them then, as usual. I received a beautiful pot of daffodils as an Easter gift. Or should I keep them in the post until they die off, then just plant the bulbs in fall? You are correct: Leave them in the pot, with foliage, until the foliage wilts and droops, then trim it off.
Put the bulbs, in the pot or not, in a cool, dry place until fall and plant them then. I have a bag of daffodil bulbs, I now live in Ft Lauderdale Fl. Will they grow here if I plant them?

Division 10, the bulbocodium hybrids Narcissus triandrus , have tiny petals compared to the corona and prefer USDA zones 4 through 9.
Divisions 12 and 13 include daffodils that do not fit into the other categories, with division 12 including many interdivisional hybrids and division 13 including many wild variants and hybrids found in nature. Miniature daffodils differ from the other standards only because the bloom sizes are typically less than 2 inches. Although daffodils can reproduce sexually through the exchange of pollen followed by the production of seeds, daffodils most often reproduce through bulbs.
Seeds may take five years to produce a bulb and up to seven years to produce flowers, according to the University of Wisconsin Bioweb. Daffodil reproduction through the asexual production of bulbs provides a more efficient and faster way to produce offspring, although the new bulbs remain genetically identical to the mother bulb.
In late winter or early spring, daffodil sprouts appear, sending up leaves and flowers using the stored energy in the bulb. The leaves perform photosynthesis to feed the bulb while providing energy for the flowers, which may last up to three weeks.
Once the flowers die, the leaves continue to provide energy for the bulb until the leaves also die. Once the soil warms up they should grow quickly. When to Plant Daffodils The best time to plant daffodil bulbs is in the fall exact timing can range anywhere from September to late November, depending on where you live. The soil needs to have cooled off, but the ground still needs to be workable when you plant. Tulips need 10 to 16 weeks of chilling and will sprout 1 to 3 weeks after the required period.
Crocus, grape hyacinth and daffodils have similar spouting times, but crocus and grape hyacinth need 8 to 15 weeks of chilling and daffodils 12 to 15 weeks. Can I leave daffodil bulbs in the ground? Can you leave daffodil bulb in the ground year round? Daffodils are perennials which means they come each year, so yes, you can leave them in the ground year round.
Leave the leaves on as the bulb is using them to store nutrients to over winter. When the leaves are dead, then you can cut them off. How many daffodil bulbs should I plant together? It's also much quicker to plant daffodil bulbs by shoveling out a dozen holes for clumps of bulbs than by digging little individual holes with a bulb planter.
I like to dig holes a foot or so across that can hold 5 or 7 bulbs, placed 4 or 5 inches apart. What month do daffodils bloom? In This Article Expand. Featured Video. Related Topics.
