They won't eat daffodils and other narcissi which are distasteful to them, but they find tulips and crocus irresistible. |
But with autumn crocus and colchicum I extended my planting pleasure by several weeks. |
The city will reap the benefit in the spring when daffodils and crocus give the city's parks and verges a splash of colour. |
The tulip is followed in popularity by the daffodil and other narcissi, the gladiolus, the lily and the crocus. |
As far as planting goes, the smaller crocus should be planted so the tips of the bulb are two inches below the soil's surface. |
Daffodils, hyacinths, crocus and other popular spring bulb flowers are also widely available now. |
