Is it too early to plant my daffodil bulbs in cornwall?
September and october is the best time. In beds plant 3 x their own depth using a trowel or bulb planting tool to do lots. Put gritty sand in hole if clay soil. In containers- few stones in bottom, then compost, push in bulbs close toghether, almost touching, compost on top and another layer of bulbs if you've space, more bulbs will give a better show.
Reply:They grow a lot better if you plant them in earth.
Reply:No, I live up in Bristol and ive put mine in this afternoon. They need to get in the ground before the frosts start.
Reply:No get on with it.
Reply:No it's not too early, Make sure you cover them with 3 inches of soil.

Reply:LEAVE IT TO ABOUT THE END OF OCT
Reply:I would plant them late Sept to mid October.





Do you have to plant them in Cornwall - seems a hell of a long way to go grow some daffs. What's wrong with your own back garden?
Reply:Not too early, bulb season is just getting kicked off. Now is best as u get a better variety
Reply:I don't think Cornwall has an opening time.
Reply:No, but it's silly if you happen to live in Yorkshire.
Reply:It's a long way to go if you live in the Midlands.
