Salome Daffodil Bulbs

Bright blooms that signal spring

‘Salome’ daffodils are a breath of fresh air in any garden, with their cheerful apricot and white blooms that bloom in mid-spring. Each bag includes 10–12 bulbs, making it easy to create colorful groupings throughout garden beds, borders, and other landscape areas. Known for their cup-shaped flowers, these hardy perennial bulbs bring life to the landscape after the winter months. Not only do their vibrant colors brighten up your yard, but they are also a reliable choice for low-maintenance gardening. Daffodils multiply over time, allowing you to enjoy their beauty year after year without much effort.

One of the standout features of daffodils is their deer resistance, making them an excellent choice for gardens in areas where these animals roam. Their natural toxicity helps deter deer and other critters, so you can enjoy the stunning display without worrying about it being nibbled away. Planting daffodils creates a lush, inviting ambiance in your outdoor space, bringing dependable color to the garden each spring.

Planting & Care

1. Planting: Plant or repot within 4 weeks of arrival. Daffodil bulbs should be planted in well-drained soil about 6 inches deep and 3 to 6 inches apart. Choose a sunny or partially shaded location for the best results.

2. Watering: While daffodils are drought-tolerant once established, it's important to water them well during their active growing season in spring. Ensure that the soil remains damp but not soggy, especially right after planting.

3. Pruning: After the blooms fade, allow the foliage to die back naturally to nourish the bulb for the next growing season. Only prune the leaves once they turn yellow and wither away.

4. Fertilizing: A balanced, slow-release fertilizer can be applied in early spring to provide nutrients as the plants grow. Generally, daffodils do not require much fertilization if planted in nutrient-rich soil.
