How to Care for the Plant

Water
Provide daffodils with about an inch of water per week while they are putting on foliage and blooming. Bulbs that are planted under trees should be watered twice a week because of competition for water with thirsty tree roots. Continue watering for three weeks after blooms fade.
Pruning
Once leaves have wilted, gardeners have two choices. Either cut the leaves at the junction of where the leaf meets the stem of the plant, leaving the stem intact; or, cut the plant to ground-level.
Fertilizer
Feed your daffodils a granular slow-release 10-10-20 or 5-10-12 bulb fertilizer in the fall. Apply it to the surface of the soil according to the manufacturer's recommendations, keeping the fertilizer off the daffodil's foliage and roots to prevent chemical burns.
