Rebuilding My Daffodil Beds
Last fall when we moved into this home, there was little time to prepare daffodil beds. We put daffodils into temporary beds and planted them. This year we started the process of building permanent, well prepared beds. To start this process, we dug half our beds to clear the beds for soil amendments prior to replanting. Next year, the plan is to complete the bed rebuilding for that half that we didn't do this year. This article is on our experience in rebuilding our daffodil beds.
