The cultivation method of narcissus

This article provides a detailed introduction to the bulbous flower narcissus, including its cultivation method. If there are any mistakes, please feel free to correct them!

In this article, we will learn about the cultivation methods of narcissus together. Most of the narcissus we usually refer to is Zhangzhou narcissus, but perhaps some flower enthusiasts may refer to the Western narcissus. Therefore, for the convenience of flower enthusiasts, we will discuss these two types of narcissus separately.

Let's first look at two pictures, the first one is Zhangzhou narcissus, and the second one is Western narcissus.

Cultivation method of narcissus —— Zhangzhou narcissus

Most of the Zhangzhou narcissus is cultivated in water, but it can also be planted in soil. The reason why water cultivation is more common is that it looks better and relatively cleaner. Flower enthusiasts can choose freely.

Water cultivation: The narcissus bought by flower enthusiasts usually comes with mud and has old skin on the surface, which affects the appearance. Therefore, enthusiasts need to clean off the old skin and the dry parts of the roots, remove the mud and the old skin on the surface, and then soak it in clean water to remove any remaining dirt. After that, it can be potted. When cultivating narcissus in water, the water in the pot should not be too much, just enough to cover the roots, because too much water will cause the bulb to rot.

After all this is done, we can wait for the narcissus to germinate. It should be placed in a well-ventilated environment and add water when it's low. It should be noted that if the ambient temperature is high, the narcissus will grow quickly and bloom earlier. Therefore, flower enthusiasts should try to provide enough light for the narcissus to prevent leggy growth. Moreover, if you want to extend the blooming period, you should lower the temperature appropriately.

Soil cultivation: Although soil cultivation is less common in the cultivation of narcissus by flower enthusiasts, those interested can give it a try. The planting method is simple. It is recommended to plant in sandy loam soil (nutrient-rich soil or other mixed soils are also fine, as long as they are permeable and breathable). The depth can be relatively random, about 1 cm of soil coverage, then water thoroughly, and that's it!

Cultivation method of narcissus —— Western narcissus

The cultivation method of Western narcissus is exactly the opposite of Zhangzhou narcissus. In China, most Western narcissus are planted in soil, with few being cultivated in water. Moreover, if Western narcissus is cultivated in water, it is difficult to rebloom the next year, but if it is planted in soil, it is much easier, which might be the reason why many flower enthusiasts choose soil cultivation. Since a moderator has previously summarized a detailed tutorial on Western narcissus, we will not elaborate much here and provide the link instead:
