watering
The Jonquilla Daffodil needs to be watered weekly, providing the soil with a deep watering. It is best to water the plant in the morning when evaporation levels are lower. During autumn, spring and summer, the soil should be kept moist but not wet. In the winter, the plant should be watered less often when the temperatures drop. Make sure not to let the soil dry out completely, as this will cause the bulb to die. For best results, keep the soil evenly moist.
sunlight
Jonquilla Daffodil (Narcissus 'Quail') grows best when given 4-6 hours of full sun each day. For maximum bloom count and size, they should be given at least 6 hours of sun each day. Partial sun is suitable for these flowers as well, but where a certain level of full sun can’t be provided, supplementing the sun with several hours of bright, indirect light is recommended.
pruning
Pruning Jonquilla Daffodils (Narcissus 'Quail') should be done after flowering has finished, usually in early to late summer. Pruning should involve deadheading the spent flower heads and trimming the foliage down by 1/3 if it has become too long and leggy. This will help prevent the plant from overcrowding and encourage more flowers for the following season.
