Come and see the butterfly-blooming daffodils, which look like butterflies playing with the wind.
Misha: This time it’s daffodils.
Hachibee: Hoho! I also know about daffodils. It’s a flower with white or yellow petals and a long yellow petal that looks like a duck’s mouth.
Misha: Yes, daffodils are quite famous flowers. However, this time, we will introduce a type of daffodil called butterfly blooming, where the petals at the mouth of a duck are shaped like a butterfly.
Hachibee: Hohohoho! There is such a type of daffodil! ?
Misha: The color is not just yellow, but also pink petals, so it’s quite gorgeous. Let’s get started!
Daffodil “almost weekly” cultivation report
10/1 Bulb planting
Misha: Daffodils are grown from bulbs.
Hachibee: It’s obviously light bulb-shaped. It looks like the lights are going to light up!
10/8 Does not germinate
Hachibee: Hmm.
10/15 Not germinated yet
Hachibee: Mmmmm!
10/22 Does not germinate
Hachibee: Mmmmmmm!
Misha: Hehe, you’re turning into an alien. Most bulb plants germinate slowly, but daffodil bulbs are especially lazy. So let’s see how it goes in a month.
12/3 Germination!
Hachibee: It’s out! Something like a small horn came out!
Misha: The bulbs sprouted about two months after I planted them. Have you noticed that the temperature is getting a little cooler?
12/10 The buds do not grow and stay still
Hachibee: It’s good that it showed its face once in a while, but it seems like it just stopped growing.
Misha: Maybe it’s searching for the temperature. This bud looks like an antenna.
12/17 The buds grow a little
Hachibee: Did the buds grow just a little? ?
12/24 It stops growing again
Hachibee: He’s a cautious guy.
Misha: While looking at the above ground, the bulbs are probably firmly establishing roots underground in preparation for spring. Merry Christmas.
12/31 Bud, unchanged
Hachibee: Is he completely in hibernation mode?
1/7 Take a little break
Hachibee: Oh, is he completely in hibernation mode? And even Misha seems to have gone into hibernation!
1/14 Another break
Hachibee: The coldest time of the year! I guess the daffodils are also taking a break. Cold, cold! Is Misha also hibernating?
1/21 Sleep mode
Hachibee: The buds remain green no matter how cold it is, so I guess they are searching carefully for the temperature.
1/28 Hibernating
Hachibee: It’s cold!
2/4 Still napping
Hachibee: Even in February, he’s still taking a nap. But will it happen soon?
2/11 Starts to move a little
Misha: It’s only a little bit, but it seems like it senses that the sun is starting to feel like spring, and it spreads its mantle and reveals its inner leaves.
Hachibee: You’re awake, Misha.
2/18 Leaves appear!
Hachibee: It’s out!
Misha: After taking off the mantle, the leaves are finally coming out.
2/25 Leaves start to grow
Hachibee: Dark green leaves have appeared!
Misha: There are still many cold days, but I can feel the spring sunshine pouring in from time to time.
3/3 Leaves begin to grow vertically
Hachibee: It’s suddenly started to grow in a hurry!
Misha: He had been building up his strength over the winter, and suddenly it came out in anticipation of spring.
3/10 Leaves grow
Hachibee: It’s amazing!
Misha: I can see that the tip is rounded, like a daffodil leaf.
3/17 The leaves become wider and begin to open.
Hachibee: Not only are they growing upwards, but each leaf has become voluminous.
Misha: The base of the leaves are also thicker and firmer.
3/24 The leaves start to grow rapidly
Hachibee: It came, it came, it came!
Misha: It seems like your whole body is happy that it’s getting warmer.
3/31 Buds form
Hachibee: It’s a little hard to see, but you can see its sharp, fairy-like head in the middle of the thick leaves.
Misha: Before I knew it, it started coming out from the roots. That’s a quick trick.
3/31 Blooming!
Hachibee: Hurry! It will be in full bloom in no time!
Misha: The flowers are so gorgeous and beautiful. During the winter, daffodils put out a few buds, wait for the weather to warm up, and then gather their strength all the time, and then in the spring, they bloom all at once and gorgeously. A very strong and beautiful flower.
