When to Plant: September – December
Plant as soon as the soil is workable in autumn. Daffodils like a cold period to establish strong roots before flowering, so the earlier the better. Late planting is still possible — just be sure it’s done at with some cold still forecast.

How to Plant Daffodils:
Choose a spot with well-drained soil — soggy ground is their worst enemy. Dig a hole around 2–3x the depth of the bulb (roughly 10–15cm), place the bulb pointy side up, and cover with soil. Space around 10–15cm apart in beds, borders, or even grass for a naturalised look. Water them in well, then leave them alone to do their thing.
