Daffodil

Daffodils, the symbol of spring. When the snowdrops and crocuses have finished flowering, the daffodils awaken in the spring garden. Daffodils are an early flowerer and bring a cheerful touch. Best known for their golden yellow colour, but also available in many other colours.

Symbolism

Daffodils are very popular around Easter. The daffodil is considered a classic Easter flower, both in full flower and as a bulb. The reason is that the daffodil is seen as a symbol of new beginnings and rebirth. The daffodil also symbolises respect. When given as a gift, the number of daffodils signifies how much respect the giver has for the recipient. The more daffodils, the greater the respect.

Colours

The daffodil family includes about 35 different species. They are available with small and large trumpets, and there are even double-flowered daffodils. Daffodil bulbs belong to the same family as amaryllis. With their bright colours, they turn any bare and dull spring garden into a feast for the eyes! Daffodils are strong, resilient flowers that emerge year after year. Golden yellow daffodils are particularly popular, but there are many others as well as lesser-known colours. Examples include cream, white, two-tone and pink.

Cut flowers

As a cut flower, daffodils are atmospheric, colourful and have a long vase life. They are scent-free and gorgeous on their own, but daffodils can also be combined with other flowers. However, this can only be done if the daffodils have been in their own vase for several hours. This is because daffodil stems secrete mucus in the water that is harmful to other flowers. After they have been separated, you can combine them with other flowers, even after the stems have been cut again!

Bulbs

Daffodil bulbs are the ultimate spring bulbs. They are cheerful, low-maintenance and fantastic naturalisers. No garden is complete without daffodils. For indoors, daffodil bulbs are also popular, and look lovely in a nice pot!
