Daffodil 'Carlton'

Bulbs x 8

Daffodil 'Carlton' is a must for all spring gardens. It consists of a large sulphur-yellow perianth with clear yellow cup centers. The distinct two toned yellow blooms carry a slight vanilla fragrance. For really effective displays plant in small clumps in flower beds, borders or alongside verges and roadside edges. A superb cut flower variety. The neat, compact flower heads make this an ideal variety for mass planting with the swaying blooms standing firm in exposed areas.

Bulbs are a form of dormant plant which when planted in the correct conditions produce a full plant over time. Plants which naturally survive as bulbs will usually die down into the ground when their season is finished in order to store their energy to return the following year.

Most bulbs should be planted at a depth 2-3 times their own depth. e.g. a 5cm bulb will be planted at 10-15cm deep.

Plant bulbs with their shoot side facing upwards up. If unsure which side, it's best to plant the bulb "laying down".

Cover with soil and lightly water in. Avoid the ground staying overly wet as it may cause the bulbs to rot.

Feed weekly with a high potassium feed, such as tomato feed, once shoots appear.

Stop feeding when the foliage begins to die back. Allow the foliage to die back naturally as this will support growth in future years.
