	Most Daffodils and Narcissus are suitable for planting between shrubs or in a border. Some varieties can also be used for forcing indoors and many are easily naturalized in grass or in a woodland garden. They are excellent for cutting and displaying in a beautiful vase to be enjoyed indoors. Smaller species are great rock garden plants. There are 12 different divisions of Daffodils and Narcissus, all with their own characteristics, which you can find 9 of listed below and at the left. Cyclamineus - 2 to 3 pendulous flowers with reflexed petals *Double* - one or more double flowers per stem *Jonquilla* - multiple, small flowers on a single stem; fragrant *Large Cup* - cup more than one third, but less than equal to in length than the petals; one flower per stem *Large Trumpet* - cup equal to or longer in length than the petal segments; one flower per stem Poeticus - very fragrant; small red-rimmed cups *Small Cup* - cup not more than one third the length of the petals; one flower per stem *Tazetta* - clusters of many, extremely fragrant flowers; excellent forcers *Triandrus* - 2 to 3 pendulous flowers per stem Browse through each of these divisions to learn more about what makes each type unique. All Daffodils and Narcissi can be grown in Canada and the United States with the exception of Southern Florida. Be sure to water the late flowering ones in the Spring since the flower may abort in dry conditions! Deadhead plants as flowers fade for neater appearance, apply fertilizer for the last time and allow the leaves to remain until at least 6 weeks after flowering to ensure success for next year. Varieties that will do very well in the South are Barrett Browning, February Gold, Fortune, Geranium, Gigantic Star, Ice Follies, St. Keverne and Thalia.

Planting & Fertilizing It is extremely important to make sure there is good drainage where you plant your bulbs and that you fertilize the bulbs 3 times with a well-balanced 10-10-10 fertilizer. Fertilize once when planting, once when they just come above the surface and once right after flowering.
