How Deep to Plant Daffs?

Plant your daffodils so that their top (pointed end) is at least two times as deep as the bulb is high (top of a 2″ bulb is 4″ deep). Exactness isn't crucial; they'll adjust. Plant bulbs deeper in sandy soil than in clay.

How deep should daffodils be?

Find a well-draining container and fill it with loose soil, making sure water won't gather and stay at the bottom. Plant the daffodil bulbs about 4-6” deep and 3-4” apart, placing them in the soil with their pointy ends up.

How do you plant daffodils in clumps?

When growing daffodils, you should plant them in groups of ten or more. All you do is make a loose circle with about seven bulbs and put three in the middle. For aesthetic reasons, you don't want to mix different cultivars within each planting group.
