Do daffodils grow in the Philippines?

Tulips are indigenous to mountainous areas with temperate climates and need a period of cool dormancy, known as vernalization. They thrive in climates with long, cool springs and dry summers. Although perennials, tulip bulbs are often imported to warm-winter areas of the world from cold-winter areas, and are planted in the fall to be treated as annuals.

Tulip bulbs are typically planted around late summer and fall, in well-drained soils, normally from 4 inches (10 cm) to 8 inches (20 cm) deep, depending on the type planted. In parts of the world that do not have long cool springs and dry summers, the bulbs are often planted up to 12 inches (300 mm) deep. This provides some insulation from the heat of summer, and tends to encourage the plants to regenerate one large, floriferous bulb each year, instead of many smaller, non-blooming ones. This can extend the life of a tulip plant in warmer-winter areas by a few years, but it does not stave off degradation in bulb size and the eventual death of the plant due to the lack of vernalization.

Where there any big cats ever in the wild in the Philippines?

No. Except the tiger (species unknown) on the island of Palawan, due to it's close proximity to Borneo, but that was before the Holocene period (contemporary geological period) which begun more than 12,000 years ago. Of course Palawan is quite some distance from most of the Philippines. In terms of Luzon, Visaya and mainland Mindanao, there appears to be no geological fossil record supporting the presence of tigers, and no contemporary reports of their existence in the wild. It seems strange as you would have thought that the Philippines would have been an ideal tiger territory in its virgin state of wilderness several thousand years ago. That having been said it is geographically located at some distance from mainland Asia and due to it's geological history probably broke away long before tiger populations reached it.
