I forgot to plant some daffodils bulbs last fall can I plant them this fall?

Do they last a while or are they only good for one year?

Do the bulbs last more than one year do you mean? I cannot find specific information about how long the bulbs are viable if not immediately planted, but why not just give it a try anyway. I have to say I would THINK they WOULD grow since they are, in essence, in hibernation right now.

Reply:No; plant them this Fall. They are perennials, meaning they'll return year after year. Aren't they beautiful? They'll continue to bloom %26amp; spread yearly. If they start slowing down with the blooms after several years, they may need thinning out.
Reply:as long as they were kept dry over the year.. most of them should blossom after being planted... but there could always be that one dud...
Reply:Plant them NOW, if you wish! Yes, they last. It won't hurt to plant them now, they may simply leaf out and not bloom this year, but those leaves will be gathering strength and food for the bulb to bloom better next year. I put in tulips in January of this year, and although they were small, they DID bloom already! So be encouraged, and


Happy Gardening!
Reply:Daffodils are annual, which of course means they come back every year.
