Great video, thank you. I subbed I'm not new to gardening, and have planted a few bulbs, but I don't know a lot about planting bulbs and corms. Will be watching you to get the knowledge to make nice displays. I have only done some pots so far because the garden beds are full of unwanted weeds and plants. One year I planted some wild flowers and amongst the seeds must have been borage, and it took over and became a weed. I now need to clear the bed then start all over again, hopefully planting bulbs, tubers and corms for various plants, but early days right now. Thanks again.
Thanks Jimmy. So pleased you enjoyed it. Yes do check out some of my other videos. Some are on specific topics and others good seasonal guides covering lots of topics, like my Spring Garden Action Plan I posted last week. Enjoy!
Thanks for watching and really pleased you enjoyed my video. Do check out some of the others on my channel too. I hope you get a wonderful display of daffodils.
I do hope you enjoy this video. If you have any questions for me do post them in the comments, and I'm always interested to hear what videos you would find useful that I could make in future. Happy Gardening!
Could you describe in more detail what a sheltered position is comprised of? How much sun? How much watering, if any is needed? How low is the temperature that can be tolerated? Thank you.
I think you are referring to placing pots of planted bulbs in a sheltered position over winter. By this I mean somewhere that pots won’t get frozen or waterlogged. Once shoots emerge they should be placed in full sun, and pots watered if conditions are dry. Hope this helps.
Hi Alice. No you should look out for Narcissus bulbs. In the UK these usually go on sale from around September and are planted at any time from September until the end of the year. Plant breeders would cross pollinate different varieties and save seed to raise new varieties, which you could try, but most gardeners will buy bulbs. Glad you enjoyed my video.
@@sharonhulin8769 winter cold isn’t a problem for daffodils, but avoid pots getting waterlogged. It’s fine just leaving pots outside in a sheltered position. Once green shoots appear (probably in the New Year) the pots should be in full light and not shade.
@@robinwine3957you could use either, but aquatic baskets allow soil contact around the sides and base, and are free draining in wet weather. This is why I prefer planting bulbs in them.
@@Adams-Gardening-Guides wish I knew that about daphs.... just huddled all my daph pots in corner of my deck on a frost cloth wrapped in burlap and a blanket (although I also have two long railing planters with hycynth and crocus) do they need wrapping??
Love daffodils. They are the hallmark of spring!!
Delighted you enjoyed my videos. There are plenty more on you channel that you can watch too. Enjoy!

Great idea to plant extras in pots to fill in gaps. Thank you :-)

Great video.
I planted the blue grape flower and now my front garden is a carpet of blue in spring.❤
@@elizabethspedding1975 yes aren’t Grape Hyacinths beautiful. They do multiply but I find them manageable and not invasive.

Beautiful, is it possible to grow this flower from seeds ?

Can you store the pots in a garage? What if it gets freezing in garage

Are aquatic pots preferred over nursery pots??
