How to choose narcissus bulbs? Mastering these few tips is enough
1. Look at the surface color
Whether a bulb is good or bad can actually be distinguished by color. Generally speaking, high-quality narcissus bulbs have a layer of membrane wrapping the outer skin, and it is brown. Only this kind is fresh. In addition, intuitively, when looking at the color of the bulb, we should also pay attention to whether there are wounds on the surface, whether there are signs of pests, and whether there are symptoms of rot. These can all be seen directly, so it is best to pay attention to them when selecting.
2. Look at shape and size
When choosing narcissus bulbs, it is recommended that you choose larger bulbs, and it is best to choose those whose surface patterns are relatively clear and clean and whose shape is somewhat flat, because such bulbs are of better quality! Many people may not know that this kind of somewhat flat bulb may already have leaves inside! In addition, the roots of the bulb are also a key point in our selection. It is best to choose ones with relatively developed roots, because such bulbs have stronger sprouting ability. In order to make the flowers bloom more beautifully later, when selecting bulbs, be sure to choose bulbs where the small bulbs beside the mother bulb are relatively symmetrical, so the flowers that bloom later will look better!
3. Feel the texture of the bulb
The two points above are all about what we see. Next let us talk about the texture of a good bulb. When buying bulbs, we can touch them with our hands to see whether they are springy. Be sure not to buy those that feel withered and shrunken. We should try to choose bulbs that feel relatively hard and fairly plump. After planting, such bulbs can not only quickly send up flower spikes, but the quality of the flowers is also better, and naturally more beautiful!
Alright, I believe that if everyone follows the methods summarized above when buying bulbs, the flowers you grow will definitely be beautiful!
