Can Daffodils grow with Tulips?

I planted some tulips near my daffodils and now it seems the daffodils are not blooming like they did before. Do tulips halt or impeed the growth of the daffodils?

Can Daffodils grow with Tulips?
Not at all--I have a big clump of both mixed together, and they're getting along great. The daffodils are just about at full bloom, and the tulips are coming through the middle of them and budding now.



You may take into consideration how old the daffodils are--after several years, the bulbs don't produce as many flowers as they used to.
Reply:The reason that crossstitchkelly's bulbs don't produce as many flowers as they used to is not because they are old, it is because they need to be divided as well! Report It
Reply:Yes, but don't plant them too close together. Both bulbs multiply and expand and will crowd themselves and each other out if planted too closely. Plus tulips, because of their growth habit, need to be dug out every few years, split, and replanted. Daffodils don't require that, although it is actually a good idea.
Reply:I have seen daffodils and tulips grown together. However in these gardens the bulbs are usually removed when the leaves die back.

If you leave them in the ground do not plant to close. From my experience, daffodils multiply faster than tulips. Tulip bulbs are also more often eaten when left in the ground.
Reply:You probably need to divide your daffodils bulbs. Dig them up after the green leaves have faded, divide them and move some of them to other areas of your yard or share with friends. I don't think the tulips have anything to do with impeding the growth. The same process will need to happen with the tulips over time.
Reply:No, probably moles or mice ate the bulbs.
