Daffodil

Narcissus Tete-a-Tete

Lighting: Position pots near a window so the plants receive bright but filtered light. Direct sunlight can burn the leaves and also causes the blooms to fade more quickly.

Watering: Water when the top inch of soil begins to feel dry. Drain any excess water from the saucer after 30 minutes.

Tip: Maintain a temperature between 50 and 70 degrees F in the room to further prolong blooms. If you want to keep the bulbs to plant outdoors later:

1. Remove spent flowers, leaving the stems intact as they provide nutrients for the bulb.

2. Fertilize with an all purpose fertilizer at half strength once every two weeks after the last flower fades.
   

3. Move the pots outside to a full sun location after frost danger is past. Cut off the foliage after it yellows and dies back naturally, usually six to eight weeks after flowering.
   

4. The bulbs will remain dormant through summer and winter, producing new foliage and flowers next spring.
