Three Months of Daffodils 
| BY A SELECTION of varieties in re- 
gard to their season of bloom, daf- 
| fodils in the open may be enjoyed for ten 
| weeks, and if locations permit, by a little 
forethought in planting the season may be 
extended over one-quarter of the year: 
Plant early flowering varieties in early 
ground, and your later sorts in late ground. 
Even though the different locations may not 
be more than twenty feet apart, the difference 
in time between the melting snows on the 
north side of a wall means a difference in the 
earliness of the ground. Now, if you plant 
in the early ground extra early flowering 
daffodils, such as Early Bird, you will have 
flowers in this latitude in March, followed 
by the midseason or April flowering vari- 
eties. Early in May the late varieties like 
Glory of Leiden, Incomparabilis and many 
of the Leedsii and Barrii groups will flower. 
The extra lates include the Poeticus section. 
These, if planted in the late or partially 
shaded location will carry the daffodil season 
well toward June. 
They may also be grown in pots plunged 
in a trench about one foot deep, with ashes 
Sir Watkin, best of the medium:crowned or cup daffo- 
dils. Flowers often five inches across 
underneath, to give drainage and keep the 
earth-worms from getting into the pots, or 
the potted bulbs may be placed in a cold- 
frame. In either case, it takes about two 
months for them to root thoroughly, after 
which a pot or two, as desired, may be 
brought into the house, for flowering. The 
daffodil is not a lover of heat. Although 
many of the species are natives of hot regions 
bordering the Mediterranean, some even 
being found wild on the African side, yet 
during hot periods they ripen up and dry off. 
In our climate the temperatures best suited 
to them are: 40° for rooting and to retard 
top growth, continued until the pots are full 
of roots, in coldframe or plunged. For 
development of leaves, stems and flower- 
buds 50° for about two weeks, in a cool, 
light garret or cellar. For the development 
of the largest flowers of durable substance, in 
conservatory, or sunny window, (60° to 70°). 
A temperature much over 70° when in bud, 
rushes the development of the buds with 
corresponding lack of substance and lasting 
qualities to the flower. In dry, furnace- 
heated rooms the flowers of daffodils, as of 
all plants, are shorter-lived.
