Jackson & Perkins Narcissus My Story Daffodil Bulbs

Yes, Narcissus bulbs contain alkaloids that make them unpalatable to deer and rodents, making them a reliable choice for gardens where wildlife pressure is a concern.

My Story daffodils require well-drained soil to prevent bulb rot. If you have heavy clay soil, amend it with organic matter or compost before planting to improve drainage.

These bulbs perform beautifully in containers, provided the pot has adequate drainage holes. Because they grow to 18 inches, ensure your container is deep enough to support the stems and stable enough to prevent tipping.

These are hardy perennials in zones 3-8 and can be left in the ground year-round. They will naturalize and multiply over time, returning with more blooms each spring.

You can expect these to bloom after your earliest spring bulbs, like crocuses or early tulips, have faded. They are excellent for extending the color season in your garden as other spring flowers begin to wane.

They perform best in full sun, which means at least six hours of direct sunlight daily. They can tolerate part shade, but you may see slightly fewer blooms and weaker stems in lower light conditions.
