Why daffodils do not bloom. What to do for an annual flowering daffodils

Daffodils - the flowers, which symbolize spring. They bloom in the flowerbed in April-May in the flowerbeds. Daffodils attract not only for its beautiful blooms, but also enjoyable pronounced aromatic odor. Many growers and gardeners wonder: why did not bloom daffodils. And they are interested in the question of how to properly care for this flower crop after flowering.

What to do with daffodils after flowering

Leaves of daffodils remain green long after flowering. They can not get yellow up to 3 months. Bulbs ripen in autumn. Leaves tend to the ground. How to deal with the "tops" of daffodils?

To do this, many cut off or connect the green ground in the beam of a sheaf if you place on a bed a little. But to cut low at the root can not be, especially during the ripening bulbs and laying flower buds when there is power flow to the vegetative parts of the underground. The following year, the bush may not bloom if cut off part of the ground at the time of the laying of flower buds.

If you decide to cut the bush daffodils, it's better to make a pruning shears, which removes leaves half. For example, if the plant height 30 cm, cut green mass of about 15 cm. The remaining part will be enough for the delivery of power to the bulb, and the last will ripen. When

the leaves turn yellow, they can be removed by cutting off at the root, because they have fulfilled their function.

What should be done for the annual blooming of daffodils

I remember as a child, we was grown on a bed of daffodils sprawling bush. And it somehow always had little stems, I'm on the subject is always upset, because I always liked the flowers. Over time, the bush in general has ceased to bloom. As a teenager, on an intuitive level, I decided to sit down flowers. And the next year, the daffodils have pleased me with his beautiful peduncles.

So, to please you daffodils flowering, you can divide them bush (digging bulbs) 2-3 weeks after flowering. And they do it every 4-5 years. It was after this period, this flower culture begins to lose its decorative effect, the plant (baby) just becomes crowded and not enough nutrients.

Also, data can be transplanted perennials in the spring with a lump of land, digging carefully, without damaging roots, when only small rostochku seemed no more than 10 cm, if there is this urgent necessity. And best of all transplanted flowers August when leaves will shrink.

Another reason for the loss of flowering daffodils - a deep planting bulbs. Typically, the bulbs are planted 10-15 cm into the ground (to a depth of 3 bulb diameters). Deeper planting is not recommended, because of this depends bloom.

Another reason - the acquisition of young planting material when the bulbs bloom for 3-4 years.

Also in the garden center you could buy diseased bulbs. And before planting forgotten etched planting material. Therefore planted bulb can simply rot in the ground and have no stems will not.
