Daffodils

At Fluwel, you can order daffodil bulbs online from our carefully selected collection. We offer a wide range of daffodils, from historical vintage varieties to modern, fragrant, or multi-flowered types. Carlos van der Veek, co-owner of Fluwel, even maintains a daffodil garden dedicated to showcasing special varieties we care about and trial ourselves.

"Daffodils are my absolute favourites. In late winter, when grass is still dormant and trees are leafless, daffodils appear and shine their pretty yellow light into the world. What beauties these spring flowers are! The daffodil comes in many colors. Yellow, white, orange, pink ... Colorful daffodils are wonderful, and they give your garden a special touch. Daffodils make people happy, as they symbolize the early spring."

Daffodil bulbs

I hear you think now, there is Carlos again with his Daffodils, isn’t he a little bit too much in love with Daffodil. Yes, I am, no problem to admit that but I really think the Daffodil is one of the most reliable bulbs.

Planting Daffodils:

Daffodils are planted in the fall (when the leaves fall from the trees), because they bloom in the spring. Make sure you plant them before the frost.

Before planting, loosen the soil well and mix in a special fertilizer for flower bulbs. Dig a trench a few centimetres deep, keeping a distance of about 5 to 10 centimetres between the bulbs to prevent overcrowding. Place the bulbs point-side up and press them firmly into the soil. Water them lightly immediately after planting, and continue to water regularly. Finally, make sure the soil is well-drained, as daffodils do not tolerate overly wet conditions.

Caring for Daffodils

After flowering, you should cut off the withered flowers so that all the energy goes to the bulb. The bulb can then provide extra beautiful flowers in the following growing season. In this way, you ensure that you can enjoy your daffodils for years to come.
