Tulips and Daffs in same vase?

Hi. i read somewhere that you shouldn't put cut daffs in with other cut flowers because they secrete some toxic substance. Is that true?
Thanks in advance-

Not sure Jo , but think terri or Karma maybe it was, I think said the same thing on the Cafe thread somewhere. Sur eone of them wil along shortly or this evening cuz of the time zones, to let ya know for sure

That is what I have heard from Terry as well, not sure what happens exactly but as Star says the pros will likely head you in the right direction soon.

Hi GeorgiaJo, I was told not to mix daffs with any other flowers in water. They release a latex slime which is toxic to other flowers. Sorry for the delay!

Thanks terri and others--- I had posted a similar question on the Bulbs forum and got a response with a great link from Dahlianut. Apparently, you can put them together, but only if you first soak the daffs by themselves.

Hey Jo,
I haven't looked at the link, but recently read somewhere that they need to soak seperately for 24 hours, then they can be added to the other flowers.

Hope this helps.

Right.. and then do NOT recut the daffs before putting them in with other flowers.
