Plant of the Month

Plant of the Month

Our plant of the month is the Daffodil. Daffodils are a beautiful yellow flower that shows us spring has sprung.

Daffodils are one of the first flowers to bloom as the season changes. They are best planted in full sun on the east or south side of a structure. They can be enjoyed in the landscape or cut for floral arrangements. Once the flower has dried, you can pinch the dead flower off the stem, but do allow the leaves to yellow and wither before you cut them back so that the plant may absorb and store nutrients for next year’s growth.

Daffodils can be divided every 3-4 years to avoid clumping.
