  • In this video we do an experiment with Daffodil bulbs. We will also try a new way to grid out bulbs for mass plantings.

    There is a county highway in Missouri where almost every other house planted daffodils by the mailbox or along the road front somewhere. It goes on for miles. It is a beautiful drive in the spring.

      I can imagine! Would be cool to start a club were you just drive around and plant Daffodils and make jokes LOL!!! Would be fun on a nice fall day.

    For me, daffodils are the first sign of soring. When I was a toddler, a man from the country would park his truck with bunches of daffodils in buckets, near the grocery store. After buying groceries, my mother would buy a couple bunches for a quarter each. I have loved daffodils ever since.
    Glad to have you back. As for measuring, have you ever seen Laura from GA measure biotone or anything else?

      I think of Daffodils in the same way because I was that old man that sold your mother flowers I have Benjamin Button disease and I was also a Toddler at the time. O.k. All joking aside I feel like they are the flower gate way to spring for me they look great in a sunny wood line or along a woodland path. I think their randomness is my favorite part.
      I have not seen Laura measure anything ever LOL!!!

    You should do a weekly Sunday evening livestream. We could talk about favorite plants, plants we’ve killed this year, bad mouth other peoples landscapes - all in good fun. I predict all the bulbs will do fine. Mine are in rocky garbage soil and they always come back.

      like always Will great feedback and Ideas. Wouldn't it be fun for all of us to get together and shoot the bull once a week?
      Time is my enemy on allot of ideas I would like to act on. Like for instance right now I should be planting more bulbs and mulching the front beds, but alas here I set laughing and talking with you guys! We'll do some cool stuff its just going to take some time to work out the balance.

    I love daffodils and my dad too, some people says that it is and invasive plant, well I want to have those problems in my yard !! Haha, I bought about 15 varieties of these bulbs, can't wait to see them in spring , greetings from Coahuila, México, I loved your channel !

    • @landscaperescuewithstuartm6141
      @landscaperescuewithstuartm6141  2 роки тому

      Invasive? I feel like that might be a stretch. Now nothing eats them and they are poisonous like every part. but still not really killing of natives and harboring pest or anything so that might just be some plant people giving opinion not fact. I hope the world survives the daffodil apocalypse. I'm going to start it this year LOL!!!

      @@landscaperescuewithstuartm6141 some UA-camrs make an entire acre of new beds and plants in one day by themselves and don't break much of a sweat haha. Then there's me who fatigues extra easily and doesn't have a helper so it's kinda depressing and slow going here.

    I love this Channel but I hate daffodils!!! I bought a old house that was covered in Daffodils, over grown lilac bushes, Forsythia bushes. It took me years to dig them out .I still have daffodils pop out every year!!! I planted a whole bunch of allium bulbs. Can’t wait to see them in Spring.

    • @landscaperescuewithstuartm6141
      @landscaperescuewithstuartm6141  2 роки тому +1

      I would just go plant those daffodils in the woods, I once took a bunch out of a ladies yard who wanted them gone, and being that I lived in a duplex at the time I just planted them on the side of the road on my way home from work, 3years later they are still going strong, so its something fun to look at on the drive. As for forsythia and lilac I use the dwarf varieties but have never liked the older crazy varieties. Tell your story with the landscape do you Boo!

    In the Spring, the grass will grow and it cannot be cut with the Daffodils coming up. Then, after bloom, the grass must remain long and unkempt while the daffodil leaves take months to yellow. What plans do you have to interplant so as to hide the dying foliage? Love daffodils, but my husband pulled out and THREW AWAY over 450 daffodils I’d planted on a hill, because he HATED the dying leaves until July!!
    This experiment is terrific and I look forward to learning/ seeing the results👍

      At my house I mow at 5 inches so I mow them when they are in the lawn. I'm testing this to see if that is going to be enough surface area to develop enough sugar to survive. In this area there are allot of rocks and Bermuda grass so we don't have to mow by the signs as often. I love how daffodils look in lawns and I need to just keep plugging away at it until I find a solution that works so far it works good but its not for every one.

    • @queen_sophie7515
      @queen_sophie7515 2 роки тому +2

      I have chopped down the leaves of Daffodils and dug them out and they keep coming back every year. I didn’t plant them they were here when I bought this house. I can’t get them to go away lol!!! I wish they would die!!!!!

    • @landscaperescuewithstuartm6141

    Glad to see a new video! Big fan of daffodils myself. Thinking of planting them along with wildflower in my holler. Not an area I do much with and I think it would be a great area to have flowers in from early spring until late summer

    • @landscaperescuewithstuartm6141
      @landscaperescuewithstuartm6141  2 роки тому

      I have to be honest Justin the reason I love daffodils is because they do so well in the environment you are describing. Fire and forget is the Daffodil way. I've found them in the woods in the middle of no where. its an old soul the daffodil.

    This is cool. I just started my own daffodil field in front of my yard. I have a wild area I'd eventually like to turn into a meadow. I didn't add anything to my holes, so we'll see.

    • @landscaperescuewithstuartm6141
      @landscaperescuewithstuartm6141  2 роки тому

      I have never used anything but bone meal and bio tone I used to mix it in a 5gal bucket and throw it in the holes I cant wait to see if the tabs do anything. We will see this spring LOL!!!

      @landscaperescuewithstuartm6141  2 роки тому +1

      We shall see if the tree rats stop pulling them out of the ground, they can't eat the bulb, but the little jerks are pulling them out for some reason.

      @landscaperescuewithstuartm6141  2 роки тому +1

      This was in the fall. The problem with a follow up video is the squirrels kept pulling them out of the ground, not eating them but just pulling them out of the holes and looking to see if I left a treat or something I don't know what goes through the mind of a tree rat but it happened. So I felt like it just didn't go well enough for a follow up video.

      It went ok it looked great but I want to wait another year some of them got pulled out of the ground by tree rats, so they froze. It looked good a pop of color on that corner. just had some set backs this year and could not get up there to film an update! Next spring will be a good time I want to plant allot more in that space.

    How ironic. I planted alliums in pots. Two pots all gardening soil. Two pots half soil, half soil conditioner. I too want to see which pots grow better.

      I can read, people can tell me things, but until I do something and try it out for myself I'm not convinced, I am in the show me state.
      We have to try new things in the garden its just gonna make us better. Good luck let me know how it all goes.
