6. Mulching: Apply a layer of mulch, such as straw or wood chips, around the planted area. Mulch will help maintain soil moisture, suppress weed growth, and insulate the bulbs during temperature fluctuations. 7. Care and maintenance: Narcissus bulbs generally do not require much care. Water them regularly to keep the soil slightly moist but not waterlogged. Remove any faded flowers or seed heads to prevent energy waste. Once the foliage turns yellow and dies back after blooming, you can cut it down to ground level. Fertilizing is not necessary but can be done before or after flowering using a balanced bulb fertilizer. Narcissus bulbs usually bloom in the spring and will reward you with beautiful, fragrant flowers year after year if cared for properly.
