Is there anyone who saves daffodil bulbs? We have lots of daffodils coming up in the lake behind our house. Their growing in the lake. This weekend, I pulled up some. I don't want to replant them now, but keep them for next year. I'm not too sure on how to save them. I have the bulbs out drying in the sun. Thanks for any advice. Marly

cool, dark area with good air flow, I use a wire hanging basket that I line with some dry moss, and hang them in the potting shed...

Yes I sure do, just love all the differant colors they come in now, and I get the ones that multiply every year, but if I see them some where, I will buy them, they are also my Moms favorites...

The daffodils we have in and around the lake are yellow in color. We never planted daffodils, I think they floated here from someone else's back yard. They are really multiplying. Marly

Sherry: There are no blooms yet. I'm still waiting. When they do bloom, I'll put up a picture. Marly
