I've only noticed it this year for some reason. Not sure if it's a local thing or nationwide. I'm in Eastern PA
Why tie the daffodil stems in knots after blooming?
You tie them back or even braid them so that they look nicer while they're returning nutrients back to the bulbs
Reply:I think it has something to do with sending the nutrients back to the bulb. I would just cut the bloom off after it dies and leave the stem to die back. Thats what I do with Day lilies. See how well they do on my website
Reply:The only reason people tie back Daff stems is to keep them tidy when they are dieing back. That's it there is no other reason.
Reply:I have never heard of this method, but I have the most amazing sweep of daffs!! Here's my tip. Let the daffs die back naturally, pull the dead flowers right out of the ground, they will easily come out, then allow the entire plant to wither, which feeds the bulds for next springs amazing show. Good luck!!
Reply:no reason, its an old wives tale
