Daffodils


Well it's finally spring here in New York and the daffodils are in full bloom. I am so excited this year about all the blooms I'm getting on them. You see, I bought bulbs several years ago- a package of 50 from Costco that only gave me ten blooms. This happened for two years in a row and then I finally did a little research and found out that a little fertilizer (low in nitrogen- I used a 5-5-10) right after they bloom will help set the blooms for the next year. Can you believe it worked!!! My garden advice for the day- fertilize!
