I just happen to be in North Georgia, and I have a lot of daffodils.

Daffodil bulbs should be planted in the fall months before the ground freezes.

Why autumn when it's a spring flower?

  • The bulb must be exposed to cold temperatures for the formation of the flower bud.
  • The bulb roots should be established prior to freezing temperatures.
  • To break dormancy & bloom, must spring bulbs need 12-14 weeks of temps below 45F.
However, they can be planted in February for a slightly later bloom than you would normally get from that particular variety.
  • Plant time zone 1-4: late August and September
  • Plant time zone 4-7: September through December

How do daffodils spread?

Daffodils do not go to seed. The grow from bulbs ( the main root of the plant. ) I usually tear apart my daffodils every 4 to 5 years and separate the bulbs, and replant them in different locations. On a side note . . . Deer detest daffodils, so they are a great flowering plant to grow if you have a large deer population. Daffodils do produce seed. Seed from species will come true to type and can take a few years to produce flowers. Hybrids will not come true from seed so are multiflied by various manipulations of the bulbs.
