Is it possible i can plant daffodil bulbs now and they will flower the coming spring?
Yes it's ok......just remember to plant them 6inches deep.
Reply:Yes you can aslong as you plant them deep enough down , so they will not be affected by frost or snow . I think it's about 6-7 inches.
Reply:Yes you can. add a little bonemeal when planting to encourage strong growth and beautiful flowers.
Reply:Yes, it is possible to plant them up to the end of December, but only if the ground is soft and in mild weather.





Remember to plant approx 6 inches deep, no deeper otherwise they will not flower.

Reply:It's possible. Geography is the key factor, that is how far north do you live? All you can do is try, because your bulbs will not keep for another year without special refrigeration/handling, and even then the bloom rate will be much less than normal.





Bulbs need time to put down roots, and start the growth of their stems before the ground temperature gets below 45-50 degrees. After that they hibernate until spring, when growth continues.





There are never enough daffodils!
Reply:Yes this is the time to plant them. Just plant them a good few inches down(4-6) and they'll survive the frost and bloom in spring.
