Daddodils, Hyacinths and Crocus are bulb plants that bloom in the early spring. They are all of the Order Asparagales (formally called Liliales), which means they are herbaceous perennial monocots. The Poppy, which is a summer bloomer, is a herbaceous annual dicot of the Order Ranunculales.
Generally tulip and daffodil bulbs should be planted at a depth that is about three times the diameter of the bulb. So, for example, if the bulb is 2 inches in diameter, it should be planted about 6 inches deep. Be sure to follow the specific planting instructions provided with the bulbs for the best results.

The actual daffodil flower grows out of the bulb on its own stalk. There are no leaves attached to this stalk. The daffodil bulb can put up a variable number of leaves each year. The number depends on the size of the bulb. The larger the bulb, the more leaves it needs to produce food to support the tissue and to store away for next year's growth.
"Daffodil" comes before "daisy" in the dictionary.
In the summer, the daffodil is dormant. The bulb is hidden beneath the soil, not to appear again until late winter. Therefore there are no life stages for a daffodil in the summer.
