watering
Miscellaneous Daffodil (Narcissus 'Bittern') should be watered twice a week, ensuring that the soil is kept moist but not soggy. Water frequently in warmer months when the soil dries out easily, and less frequently in cooler months when the soil remains moist for longer. Avoid over-watering at all times to avoid root rot. If the soil becomes too dry, deeply water the entire soil surface until it is evenly moist.
sunlight
Miscellaneous daffodils (Narcissus 'Bittern') prefer full sun to part shade in the garden. They will do best in an area that gets a minimum of 6 hours of direct sunlight each day, though morning sun is preferable to afternoon sun to help protect the blooms from wilting in the heat. These daffodils will also tolerate light shade and may even do better in areas with some shade and morning sun than those that are in direct sun all day long.
pruning
The miscellaneous daffodil (Narcissus 'Bittern') does not require much pruning. After the daffodil has finished flowering, the foliage should be allowed to die back naturally. Pruning can occur in late spring or early summer. Be sure to cut off the faded flower stalk close to the base of the plant without cutting back the strap-like leaves. Do not cut back the foliage until it has turned yellow and died back.
