November 10th, 2009UncategorizedNarcissus bulbs have a small, flat, round base plate where the roots will emerge. Sometimes this is smooth; other times it has root buds or hairy gray roots. Plant the bulbs with this part pointing down.
Many fall bulbs are ideal for naturalizing, which means planting them outside a formal flower bed. Narcissi or daffodils are especially suited for this because they don’t taste good to wildlife. Late fall is the best time for naturalizing, after the grass has started to die back, so that you can easily reach the soil in a yard or forest. (You may also enjoy my earlier posts on planting fall bulbs, crocus, tulips, daffodils, and hyacinths.)This year I bought a big bag of assorted narcissus bulbs. These will produce bunches of small yellow or white flowers in spring. The front of the package shows what the flowers will look like and how many bulbs there are.
The back of the package gives planting instructions. Remember these are for a bed. You might want to plant naturalized bulbs a little farther apart and use more random spacing. The usual depth for narcissus bulbs is 4-6 inches apart in holes 4-6 inches deep.
Narcissus bulbs are smaller than daffodils. They have a pointy top, sometimes extending into a long neck. Plant them with this part pointing up.

Here you can see a side view of several narcissus bulbs. These are all different kinds and will bear different styles of flower in the spring. They are covered with a papery tunic. It’s okay if this falls off, but don’t peel it off deliberately — it helps to protect the bulbs.This bulb is a double one. Narcissus often appear this way; it’s one method by which they reproduce. When mature, double bulbs can be separated carefully and then replanted. Each half will grow into a complete plant, identical to the parent.For naturalizing bulbs, you need a trowel and a pair of garden gloves. The gloves are especially important with this type of gardening, as they protect your hands from sharp grass blades, splintery wood chips, and other hazards you might not find in a carefully groomed garden bed.Choose a place where the spring flowers will look nice. You may scatter them through the yard or plant them around trees. I decided to plant a ring around the base of this maple tree.Fill in the hole and smooth down the dirt. If you have leaves or bark mulch, add that after filling the hole. Water the bulbs if you’re not expecting rain. -
