Water-growing temperature
Narcissus needs a relatively warm place to grow, is very intolerant of cold, and also fears high temperatures.

So when growing it in water, the daily temperature should keep changing by 7 to 8 degrees, and it cannot stay at a constant temperature all the time. Also be careful not to let the narcissus suffer frost damage, as frost damage will cause the leaves to wither, and then it will not be able to bloom during New Year's Day.
4. Light
The healthy growth of most plants cannot be separated from light, and narcissus is the same. Narcissus relatively likes sunlight; if it stays for a long time in a dark corner of a room, its flowering period will become very long and it will not be able to bloom in time, so at the beginning when growing it in water, it should be placed in a cool place at 10 to 18 degrees to grow in water, and after it grows new roots, place it in a place with better sunlight, ensuring no less than 6 hours of light each day, so that it can bloom on time on New Year's Day.
