The first thing that probably comes to mind when you read the name Jack Sparrow is that funny captain of the Black Pearl in the fantastic series Pirates of the Caribbean. But the name Jack Sparrow is also a nod to the legendary Narcissus Jack Snipe among flower bulb growers.
Jack Snipe was loved by all growers, everyone knows Jack Snipe and everyone has something positive to say about this little rascal. But Jack Snipe is hardly grown anymore these days. The (fortunately) reduction of chemical agents in agriculture has ensured that Jack Snipe can hardly be grown anymore, too much diseased and very.
But suddenly there comes the breeder Rinus van der Zalm with a cheerful white-yellow garden daffodil. I honestly thought it was Jack Snipe when I saw her for the first time. 'No, a seedling', said Rinus.
'Then you should call her Jack Sparrow', I said, 'then her bed will be largely made'. 'I will Carlos, nice name, and you can be the first to sell her in the Fluwel web shop'. 'I will Rinus, I will make a lot of people happy with Jack Sparrow'.
Daffodils
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:
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.
