Having Daffodil Bulb Blooming Problems?

Are you getting frustrated by the lack of flower blooming from your daffodil bulbs? Well, here is the last set of problems that may be the reason why the flower is looking sickly, not blooming, are just being a pain. This is part three of the daffodil bulb problems, so feel free to check out my other posts as well. So, another reason for your daffodil's incompetence is that it may of had unfavorable growing conditions the previous year. Even if the daffodil had prime weather for most of the summer and then a drought or violent weather hit your area, then the bulb seeding and reformation could have been affected, even after several weeks of flowering. If this happened than your daffodil bulbs may have more trouble blooming and flowering correctly come next year. Though there's nothing you can really do to stop the weather, you can make sure that your bulbs are watered properly until you cut off the leaves of the daffodil.

Yet another reason is that the daffodil bulbs may have been harmed or put under unnecessary stress during packaging, shipping, or storage before you bought them. Though there's nothing you can really do to stop businesses from selling bogus daffodil bulbs, you can make careful decisions when purchasing your daffodil bubls from retailers. I'll have a list of reputable daffodil sellers in my next post. Lastly, your daffodil bulbs may be not flowering as well as they should because they've been growing in the same spot for many years and need to subdivide. If you've had your daffodil flowers in the same spot, they may have become crowded and are competing for nutrients and water as they divide every year or two. If this happens, separate and replant the daffodils at least 6 inches apart and 6 inches deep. This will help them have breathing space.
