When I lived in La Crosse, Wisconsin I took a chance and plopped my spent houseplant's bulbs in the ground to see what would happen. Sure enough, the following spring I had a sweet clump of mini daffodils! I hope that the current tenants of our old town house are enjoying them now! Last spring I planted some near a lilac bush here at our new home in Iowa, and as of today (March 26, 2007) there are lots of teeny tiny three inch tall stems with fat buds showing yellow at the seams. They'll be blooming tomorrow for sure!

Something I really love about these little guys (aside from how CUTE they are) is that the blooms last longer (for me anyway) than larger daffodils. Also, you often get multiple blooms on each stem--bonus! Next time you see a pot of these at Wally World for three bucks, let them liven up your kitchen table, then give them a good home in your garden!

I have a few of these jonquils flowering now (March 2005) from bulbs I planted about 2 years ago. I am hoping they will bloom more profusely with time as they become better acclimated to our climate.
