jonquilla daffodil

Jonquilla daffodils should be watered thoroughly after planting, and then they require regular watering throughout the growing season. It should be kept moist but not soggy. Water when the soil feels dry about 1 inch below the surface. If the foliage begins to wilt, this is a sign that the plant is in need of water. For optimal growth, water twice per week during the growing season, reducing watering frequency as the flower stalks fade and die back.

The Jonquilla Daffodil is a flowering plant that prefers to be planted in areas that receive lots of sun throughout the day. The ideal amount of sunlight is a minimum of 6 to 8 hours per day. For the Jonquilla Daffodil to grow and thrive, it will need to receive full sun during the morning and early afternoon hours, and partial shade during the late afternoon and evening. The plant should be protected from windy conditions and the afternoon sun, which can be especially intense during certain times of the year. In order to maximize its potential for vibrant color and healthy growth, the Jonquilla Daffodil should be provided with ample sunlight throughout the day.

Pruning Jonquilla Daffodils (Narcissus 'Dainty Miss') should take place in late spring, directly after blooming has stopped. Lightly prune the stems to remove any discoloured or damaged foliage. This will help to keep the plants looking healthy and vigorous. Avoid cutting back too far, as this can lead to die-back or reduce flower production the following spring.
