5:47 They are SO so resilient! Around 5ish years ago, the city reclaimed some of my parents’ front and back yards to expand the walking trails in the area and paved directly over the daffodil bed that had been in their side yard since before they moved in (25-30 years ago!) and those daffodils STILL come up every year! Now they’re just on either side of a wide pavement instead of in nice rows in a bed. :) I was so relieved when they came back after that because I was devastated when the city reclaimed those parts of my parents’ yards- cutting the area of both in half- despite never taking care of the “city owned space” in over 25 years.
Hi Jess, what a lovely story 😀 so sorry the city reclaimed some parts of your parents' gardens, that must have been hard. And then to pave over the daffs...not cool. But nature always finds a way 😀😉 the trail must look very pretty nonetheless ☺️
thank you, I picked up a pot of daffodils for a $1 on the clearance plant section becaue they had already bloomed and they browned soon after buying but wasn't sure how to store them, thank you.
Please show more shots of your beautiful balcony, and describe at which time of the year you do what, while still filming the balcony. Then we can actually enjoy your lovely pots of plants. After that you can move on to the other instructions.
Hi Julia, thank you for your suggestion 😊 do you mean just a stationary shot of the balcony and I talk over it? Anything in particular you'd like to hear?
this might be dumb, but could i also plant them in the soil already this year, after they stopped blooming? instead of storing them for next year, i mean :)
Hi Bo, that's a great question, not dumb at all! Yes you can do that, a few tips would be to make sure they're still healthy before replanting so you're not disappointed if they don't grow, plant them at the right depth for that bulb and lastly if you're planting anything on top of them just keep in mind where you've planted them so you don't disturb them. Good luck! 😁🌱
@@balconiagarden ahh thank you so so much for the answer (and the video, of course)!!🌼🍀 i will definitely try it out, then probably forget about them, and only remember i planted them when (if🤞) they grow next year :)
Very informative. Will the daffodils grow new flowers (not on the deadheaded stem) but grow new ones after deadheading the old ones? Mine are in pots and it's only late march but some of the flowers are beginning to wilt and I can see the seed pod. Thanks so much for the clear, informative video.
Hi Ricky, glad you enjoyed the video 😀 it depends on which variety you're growing, some daffs can grow up to 20 flowers from different stems from one bulb and can also have more than one flower on one stem. As far as I know deadheading wont encourage more flowers to grow but its still good practice as it encourages the daff bulbs to store lots of energy for next season. Good luck 👍
Hi Candice, that's a great question. I would say in theory yes but normally when we're planting in pots we plant the bulbs very close together for a fuller display, which would then limit how much they can spread. If they were left to go to seed they could also potentially grow but I think the competition would be too great. I would say give it a go! I've found many times that when I've tried something in gardening that "shouldn't work", it actually has so I always try things out. 😀
Thanks, Neil 🙂 nothing bad would happen but the energy used to grow seed pots could be used for other things by the bulb. When daffs grow in a garden and someone wants to create a wilderness area or daffodil drifts then ita good to leave the seed pods to ripen and fall to the ground and then grow on. 😉
You say to remove the spent bulbs and store in a cool space. A refrigerator? I live in Arizona. That’s the only cool place during summer. And when do you take them back out to repot?
Hi Kate, I would say the fridge is a bit too cold for the dormancy period but as long as the bulbs are healthy they should be fine. Make sure you don't have them near any fruit as the gases given off by fruit can destroy the flower bud within the bulb. You can then take your bulbs out in autumn/winter where they should experience at least 12 weeks of temps below 7°C. It might be an idea to just leave the bulbs on the fridge until late winter/early spring if the winters in Arizona are also warm, although I've never done that so not sure how the bulbs will respond. Spring-flowering bulbs are hardy and tough by nature so hopefully they should be fine. Hope that helps 😊
I planted hyacinth in a 22cm terracotta pot, and they have come up flowering beautifully. Can i leave them in this pot and soil and put all of it into dry dark storage? I'm hoping to see them again next year ?
Hi Catherine, glad you had a lovely display. I've put many hyacinths in their pots and soil into dark storage and they've grown the following season so the short answer is yes 😊 as long as get at least 12 weeks of temps below 6°C over autumn and winter they should be fine. The only thing to remember is when we don't lift the bulbs for storage we can do a health check; some bulbs might have rot and then won't grow the following season. Hope that helps 😊
Hi Moon, I have two daff planting videos, one is called How to plant dwarf Daffodils and the other is how to plant tulips and daffodils together in one pot. Unfortunately I can't post links in the comments but if you search in the videos sections you should find them 😊
Hi Hannah, you're welcome! Best time to plant is in mid to late autumn or when the temps drop to around 12 to 15°C when the soil is still warm enough for the bulbs to put down roots before they go into semi dormancy in winter. For soil I use a good quality multi purpose compost with 25% sand or grit to make sure drainage is good. I have 2 full planting videos for daffs on the channel, they should have more info there (can't add links in comments). Hope that helps! 😃
If the tips of the leaves are browning, but still half green, should I cut off the brown parts or just leave it until they completely die? Thank you for the informative video!
Hi Beebop, I would leave the leaves as they are, when you cut them it creates a wound on the plant and it would most likely send some sort of energy there to heal the wound. We want the daff to store as much energy as possible for next season's growth. Hope that helps!
Hello, I live in the USA in Zone 6. I just bought a small pot of mini daffodils that are in full bloom. It is March 29; when the leaves turn brown and die, can I plant the bulbs in my yard right away, or should I store them until Fall? Thank you.
Hi Mary, you have a few options but first just some info about the daffs- if you bought them in a pot and they are sitting on top of the soil the chances are these bulbs have been "treated" which means they have been exposed to certain conditions that make them flower at a certain time. These bulbs are often difficult to regrow but a season or two being planted under the soil should help them to recover. So you can either plant these daffs into the open soil at a depth between 10 and 15cm or you can store them and then plant them out in fall, still at that depth. Make sure they're still healthy before you decide anything. Hope that helps!
Hi Rona, glad you liked the video 🙂 if you're lifting and storing the bulbs during their dormant period you don't need to water them but if they're remaining in the soil or in pots I'd either let the summer weather take care of them or water them lightly maybe once every few weeks 🌷
Thx. I am keeping them in either the air conditioned house right by a glass door north exposure or might bring them out on the terrace which is covered on theee sides louse a ceiling. ( protected from rain .. so I guess either way I’ll water them. Right?
Oops one more question . Only give them food while they start to grow again next early spring and continue feeding they the flowering ? Or stop after the flowers appear ? Thx
Hi Karen, if the bulbs are planted deep into the soil in the pot they should be fine left in the pot, you don't need to give them much protection and they should be fine flowering next season. If the bulbs were forced and are sitting on the top of the soil I would recommend removing them and planting them deep into the soil in autumn. Last year I had some forced bulbs in a pot and I left them as they were in a sheltered position over winter and although they grew leaves they had no flowers 😬 you could always give both ways a go and see what happens! 😀💚
Do you have to remove them from the soil? Im curious because what happens to wild daffodils? Obviously those dont have care takers who remove their bulbs.. is it a must to remove them if you’re caring for them? Thank you! ☺️
Hi DH, you can leave the bulbs in their pots no problem, that's something I also do. I only lift them because I need the pots and space for summer fruit and veg 🙂
@@balconiagarden ahh thank you so much! Phew i thought i had to do all that.. not that I dont want to, just im afraid of hurting my daffodils.. im really new at gardening and caring for plants and i recently received a daffodil as a present so just wanted to know the full care for them
Hi Michele, you can plant them in pots or the open soil. Just be aware if you're replanting bulbs that were forced it might take them a season or two to reflower and they should always be planted under the soil at around 15cm to give them a chance to recover.
so I was gifted what I think are tete-a-tete daffodils a few days ago that looked so cute and perky! but within just 2-3 days, the flowers are already withering away (not brown yet, but the petals look dried out and wilted), even the new bulbs that haven't even bloomed yet :((( I don't think I'm overwatering since they're not sitting in water at any point, and I'm trying to give them as much indoor sun as possible without scorching them since I live in Vegas, which has a desert climate and it's already hitting 90+ degrees here. I think it's nearing the end of their blooming season, but since even the newest buds are showing signs of something being wrong, is it possible that the ambient temperature is just too much for them in my house? it's easily 80+ inside and the plants are likely even hotter from getting sun near the windowsill.. (though I'm still figuring out if indirect light further from the window would be enough light for them) the tips of some leaves are already turning yellow, but I can't tell if it's because the plant is burning or if it's just at that developmental stage already! I'd deeply appreciate any insight, I'm still immensely struggling with figuring out how to keep plants alive with the blistering heat of my environment and I'd like to not kill this gifted plant in the first week of having it 😭😭
Hi Savanna, it's definitely a challenge growing plants indoors anyway and with a heat like that, even harder! Daffs are spring-flowering plants so they thrive in cool temperatures with a gentle spring sun but not blistering. 35 to 65 F is ideal for them so it sounds as if your home is too hot for them. Is there a cool part of your home you can out them in? Humidity also plays an important part so if the air is too dry this will also contribute to the leaves and flowers drying out. I always recommend sticking to plants that thrive in the conditions you can provide them with, the plants will be happier and you will too! You'll also save time and money. There could of course be something wrong with the bulbs themselves, check for any pests and diseases and make sure the roots are healthy and not mushy. I'd say though that it's probably to do with the temps. Hope that helps and good luck with your gardening! 💚
@@balconiagarden ahh, no wonder they've been suffering :') the humidity in Vegas is also incredibly low (typically 10-20% year-round), so the dry heat is unfortunately inescapable here! I'll just have to wait and see if even the foliage is able to survive for much longer then, or if it'll completely die outside of greenhouse/nursery conditions here that I can't provide it. I may try my hand at marigolds instead then, since I've been reading that they're fairly heat-tolerant and the varieties native to Mexico may do well here. tysm for your help! 💗
Hi Sudir, yes you can grow daffs from seed, it just takes a bit longer for them to grow and eventually flower. You can also cut off the baby bulbs or bulblets from the mother plant once they start producing their own leaves and get more daffs that way Good luck 👍
Hi Yogi, bulbs have fascinating growth and development and daffodils are no different. In the wild they reproduce 2 ways, either through asexual reproduction where the mother bulb creates daughter bulbs or offsets that are genetic clones. The mother bulb will eventually die back after around 5 years or growth and its energy will pass to the daughter bulbs. There is also reproduction by seed which is when the flowers are fertilised and produce seed pods that contain seeds. This will eventually open up and the seeds will fall to the ground and begin life as a new and genetically different plant. It can take up to 7 years for a daff to flower from seed. Daffs will also only grow in the wild in soils that are loamy, fertile and free draining with full sun to partial shade. They're wonderful flowers and bulbs are so interesting to grow! 😀💚
Very informative and helpful. Thank you a lot. I have a question: I got some daffodil bulbs recently, and i wanna plant them in a pot. I do not plan to force them. Do they need a cold period to grow or leaving in a cool place with not much watering will be enough?
Hi babi, yes your daffodils will need a cold period. The cold weather causes the bulbs to go half dormant and then when the warmer weather in spring arrives the bulbs start to grow. I would plant your daffs and leave it somewhere where it receives rain and let the winter weather take care of itself 🙂
@@balconiagarden Thanks for the info a lot! I have planted my daffs and left the pot on a balcony. It’s getting cold at my place, i think it gonna be good for them. Hoping to see them grow at spring, hehe
