daffodil 'Martinette'

Plant bulbs at one-and-a-half times their own depth in autumn, slightly deeper in light soils and in grass, in well-drained, preferably slightly alkaline, soil that is reasonably moist in the growing season in spring, in full sun or light dappled shade, though they will flower best in full sun. See daffodil cultivation or further advice

Deadhead as the flowers fade but allow the leaves to die down naturally

Propagate by division: separate and replant offsets as the leaves fade in early summer, or in early autumn before new roots are produced

May be affected by slugs, snails, large narcissus bulb fly, narcissus eelworm, and pollen beetles

May be affected by narcissus basal rot, narcissus leaf scorch, narcissus smoulder, tulip grey bulb rot, other fungal diseases, narcissus yellow stripe virus, and other virus diseases
