watering
Small-cupped daffodils need to be well-watered to keep them healthy and blooming. Depending on your climate, water about once a week, or as needed. Water deeply, giving the plant time to absorb moisture. Avoid overwatering, as this can cause the bulbs to rot. If the temperature is particularly high, you may need to water even more often. Water the plants early in the morning or late in the day, and avoid splashing water on the foliage as this could lead to fungal diseases.
sunlight
Small-cupped daffodil (Narcissus 'Copper Coin') needs full sun to partial shade in order to thrive. It should receive at least 6 hours of direct sunlight each day, ideally in the morning or late afternoon hours when the sunlight is not as intense. When temperatures are extremely hot, it may be beneficial to provide some afternoon shade in order to protect the daffodil from the intense heat.
pruning
Small-cupped daffodil (Narcissus 'Copper Coin') should be pruned immediately after the blooming season. This variety of daffodil may need to be trimmed back as they tend to overgrow and look somewhat messy. Trimming back the foliage after blooming can help the plant look tidy and prevent overcrowding. It is recommended to prune off up to 2-thirds of the foliage so that the new foliage that appears will be more vibrant and presentable. To ensure a successful pruning session, use sharp, clean shears or scissors and make sure to only prune away the parts of the plant that have lost their integrity and already have started to drop their life. The remaining foliage should be trimmed down to a length of several inches.
