Rachel you're a star, rescuing the show with your phone. Such a lovely idea to grow a few in a pot, so you can really look at them in the green house. Think l should try that idea.
Daffodils!!! Poetic nature has given us the inspiration for flying with the soft breeze in spring … The Irish ☘️ nature in your information is a natural gift. Thank you 🙏
I used to be underwhelmed by daffodils, until I realized there were so many lovely varieties and also that garden pests leave them alone! I now can’t add enough, including many of the types you’ve featured here. They are so hardy that a patch planted in 1978 has been going strong, albeit suffering from reduced flowering. I dug them up and spread them around this year. Can’t wait til spring!
I bet your daffs will do brilliantly now that you divided them. They do go blind over time when the clump gets big. Glad we're on the same page with how beautiful these plants are. Thanks for watching and commenting and have a great day.
@@GardeningatDouentza Yes I’m hoping so! Though I wonder if this year’s show won’t be as lush, since it’s based on last year’s growth…? I guess I’ll find out in a few months’ time. And they had most definitely gone “blind” in spots as my in-laws planted them decades ago, where they thought the front of the home would be, but the layout changed and they’ve since just been growing away happily in a brambly area on the edge of a field. Here’s to their continued growth!
I'm excited for what this spring will bring. Right around Christmas I took advantage of an 80% off clearance sale and bought lots and lots of daffodils. Hooray! Here in South Carolina the ground rarely stays frozen long so I can plant fall bulbs even in late winter.
Those sales really are difficult to resist and spring is the real benefactor. Hope your daffodils are amazing in spring, which is just around the corner now.
You have some great varieties there. Your new greenhouse is going to smell amazing in spring and it is quickly filling up🤣. I particularly like the Spoirot daffodils.... they are so unusual. I had them on my list for this year but somehow it fell through the cracks when I was putting the order through to Farmer Gracy. Next year definitely.
Always a pleasure to watch your channel. I love the easy going nature you have giving your knowledge and sharing your joy with us. Great choice of daffodils, it's my first year planting them! I chose golden echo, and some white doubles. I live in Canada in zone2b, so my choices for most plants are limited by the cold winters but I've heard daffodils will flourish here. Cheers to a gorgeous spring display!
Só many varieties of Daffodils!!! I love them. They do not work so well for my small garden which I regret. The flowering period is too short and the leaves are too persistent. However I am sure they will put up a show in your garden and I am looking forward to it. The best flowering spring bulbs for me are freesias. Do you find them interesting?
Freesias are wonderful but not at all hardy for me. I used to grow them in greenhouse pots. Maybe I need to do that again. The scent is very special. Have a great Sunday.
Paperwhite narcissus are gloriously scented indoor bulbs. They are division 8 (Tazzetta) and only hardy to about -5°C.. depending on where you live, you may get away with them in the garden for a few years.
Thank you so much for all your videos, they're very instructive. I'd like to ask : what do you do with these kind of autumnal bulbs once Spring is finished and a dry a hot Summer begins ( I live in Northern Italy)? Do you remove them from the pot or can they be left where they are waiting for the next season? Must they be kept dry in a dark and fresh place? An other question :when you put them so deep in a small pot there's only few centimeters of earth for the roots. Is it enough? Thanks again. Grazie from Italy
Hello and thank you for your questions. Small daffodils do best in pots. Bigger ones probably should go into the ground after their first flowering. My daffodil pots will need to be kept cool and in a relatively shaded area over summer. They won't stay in the greenhouse. This may be more challenging in Italy and you might be better off to lift them. I will water and feed until the leaves disappear and may try to keep the miniature daffs in pots longer term. Ideally daffodils should have a deeper root run than the pots shown in the video. It does depend on the variety. The majority of my big double daffs, for example, went into large pots with a deeper root run - about 3 times their depth of soil below and above the bulbs. The two larger pots weren't shown in the video as I lost that potting footage. Hope this helps.
Hi. Just got back from a quick break and trust my non-irish luck - it snowed. I didn't get round to planting the bulbs and now worried its too late. As u are north from my UK Midlands, is there any hope? I watch ur channel for inspiration, for clues of what would survive in my garden, love ur videos, thank u for a year's worth of valuable information. Looking fwd to each and every video -bless u.
@@sjay6668 Well, you can't plant in snowy or frozen ground. Wait for a thaw and then get them in! Try to get tulips in by mid December as they do need cold to flower properly. It's a bit late for daffodils but if they're still firm, plant them! Good luck!
Hi Rachel, I like the cram color double flower daffodils. Very pretty.
☺️💮🌸
Hi Cheryl, how are you doing?

Thank you, Penelope. Have a super day and happy growing
Wow so many daffodils🌼🌼🌸🌸 Lots to Look forward to next spring!😍❤️❤️🇬🇧

The last hoop petticoat daffodil you showed us is really nice in particular, I really like trumpet shaped flowers as you probably know.
You have excellent taste ☺️

Same here! I was finally introduced to different varieties and I’m really loving them.

@@GardeningatDouentza 🤣I'm not successful at resisting such sales. I see a lot of blue green shoots so I'm hopeful!

Hi Granny's, how are you doing?
Those bulb lists can get very long sometimes. Sorry for the late reply. Your comment was hidden because of the reply below.

Lovely to hear from you and sending greetings from Ireland to snowy Canada!
I recognize that packaging, love their plants. Can you just leave those pots outside in the cold and rain et cetera?
Yes, the bulbs are from Farmer Gracy. Potted daffodils can be left in a sheltered spot outdoors.

What bulbs do you have?
@@GardeningatDouentza Good Morning.
I have :
Hiacinths
Tulips
Aliums
Agapanthus
Daffodils

I'd plant agapanthus in a pot in the greenhouse though!
@@GardeningatDouentza Thank u so much. There is hope then..so pleased.
Lovely selection of daffodils
From where do you order from?
Thanks, Tina. They've from Farmer Gracy.
I Would be really curious as to where you order these from ? (As there’s stunning) :)

Why do you fill up without a drainage?
They shouldn't need it.
I don't know what to say 🤔🤔🤔🤔
