During active growth in spring, water regularly to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.

Reduce watering significantly after flowering when foliage begins to yellow and die back, as the bulbs enter dormancy and excess moisture can lead to rot. Ensure good drainage to prevent fungal diseases.

Deadhead spent flowers to prevent seed formation and redirect energy back into the bulb, but do not remove the foliage until it has naturally yellowed and died back, typically 6-8 weeks after flowering. This allows the leaves to photosynthesize and store vital energy for the next year's blooms, ensuring robust flowering.

Propagate primarily by dividing offsets (bulbils) from mature clumps during their dormant period in late summer or early autumn.

Carefully separate the smaller bulbs from the parent bulb and replant them immediately at the appropriate depth. Can also be grown from seed, but this method takes several years to reach flowering maturity.

Repot container-grown daffodils every 3-4 years, or when they become overcrowded and flowering diminishes. Lift the bulbs during dormancy, divide them, and replant in fresh, well-draining potting mix.

Ensure pots have adequate drainage holes to prevent waterlogging and provide sufficient space for future growth.
