poeticus daffodil

Poeticus Daffodil (Narcissus 'Actaea') plants require 1-2 inches of water each week, ideally in 2 separate watering sessions. In spring and summer, during active growth, water the plants every 7-10 days. In autumn and winter, when the plants are dormant, water them every 14 days. The soil should be kept moist but not overly wet, and never let them stand in water; the bulbs can rot if this happens. When watering, check the soil near the base of the leaves: if it’s dry, water deeply. If not, wait until the next watering session.

The poeticus daffodil (Narcissus 'Actaea') needs full sunlight, 6-8 hours of direct sunlight each day, to help it thrive and produce colorful bloom. It is best to plant them where they can get full morning sunlight, and then be shaded from the hot afternoon sun. If this is not possible, then at least make sure the plants are far away from any structures that can cast shadows over them. When planted in pots, it is important to rotate the pots regularly to ensure all sides get proper sunlight.

Once a year is a good time to prune poeticus daffodil (Narcissus 'Actaea'). Pruning should be done after the daffodils have finished blooming in the spring. To prune, simply cut off any dead, damaged, or dying leaves and stems near the base of the plant. Deadheading the spent blooms is also recommended. Be sure to avoid pruning any healthy foliage as this can stunt the plant's growth and prevent future flowering. Trim back the foliage to about 6 inches from the ground to provide adequate air circulation for the remaining foliage. This will help promote healthy, full blooms for the next season.
