Daffodil Cananiculatis
A beautiful miniature cluster daffodil. Grass like blue green foliage with small, reflected white and golden yellow cups. Sweetly perfumed and truly unique. Likes a hot summers bake to inspire flowering.
Hardy and bright, nothing heralds the start to spring like Daffodils. Their bold, long lasting blooms emerge in Mid Winter (Melbourne) through to early spring and make for exceptional cut flowers.
Daffodils need a full sun position, but can tolerate some dappled light. Prepare your beds to a depth of 20cm, making sure the soil is light and fluffy. Plant the bulbs with the 'fat' end down at a depth of 6cm. Allow 10cm between each bulb, however a less full result can be achieved if you choose to plant further apart.
If growing your Daffodils in a pot, select a high quality potting mix that is free draining. Some gravel in the base of the pot will assist with any drainage issues. Ensure the bulb is well fed and watered right up until dormancy.
Daffodils DO NOT require refrigeration, and are happy to naturalise in the ground for many years. Feed your bulbs as they come into bloom, and make sure you leave the foliage to fully die down - this feeds and grows NEXT years flower.
Happy Gardening!
Please note, we do not dispatch our bulbs until Mid March, in order in which the orders are received. Your bulbs will arrive in good time for planting and should be stored in a cool, dry location prior to planting. Your soil temperature should be below 15 degrees for ideal planting conditions. Please allow for an initial delay when processing orders due to our backlog.
