How long will they bloom for? And what do you do with the paperwhites after they finish blooming?
Love the Autumn intro
Ah cheers! They were very good fun to make (I have outtakes! 😂)
Love this, thank you. You're on my go-to list of vloggers for gardening, always glad when you have a video on what I'm searching for. :)
Hey i saw you video on reddit, and i just wanna say that you have high quality content my friendo :D
Thanks very much! 🙏
I will try it out, Niall !! Thanks for sharing !
Hope you have success! I’m sure you will!
Thanks for this video. I hadn't seen these paperwhites before. I just ordered some to grow in a basket under my front porch. Looking forward to some lovely flowers at Christmas.
Oh let me know how you get on with them in that case! I'll be interested to hear!
Love your new autumn intro! Great video and great info 😄
Thanks so much! 😊 Glad you liked it! (I do love making intro videos!)
will get some off them now great info
Do! I don't think you'll regret it!
Great stuff... will have a go 👍😀
Have fun! They're brilliant!
Those are going to look pretty! I don't have much luck with bulbs. Most likely because that they weren't stored properly prior to getting them. Thanks for sharing!
Sorry to hear that! I'd agree that it's most likely not your fault, but what's happened to them before you've got them... I know that's happened to me before with seeds 👍
Hi Niall , I love the white flowers ❤
What the long winters it's so nice to have flowers in the house 😊🌼
Enjoy your Sunday !
Yeah having some indoor flowers really makes all the difference doesn't it? You too! Enjoy your Sunday also!
Super cute flowers! You mentioned they were frost hardy, what kind of times would they flower if you planted them outside?
Yeah you absolutely can! 👍 My plan is that I'll let these flower indoors this winter, then store them for planting out in the garden next Autumn
I’m definitely trying these this year 💕 I love the smell of them 🌸🦋🌸
Ok so I immediately wanted some indoor daffodils but Kate says no.... apparently I have a lot of indoor plants already or something :)
Inspiring video
Oh no! I think you should totally just buy some anyway and hide them until they come into bloom! 😂
The production quality in these videos are insane. You deserve far more subscribers
Thanks dude! Keeping my fingers crossed!
Lovely gift idea for Xmas! This will be perfect for my grandmother. Thank you Niall 😊
You’re welcome 😊 They really do make lovely simple presents, and I know my grandma loves getting something handmade rather than just bought off a shelf ❤️
Cool channel thank you for all the info.
Thanks for watching!
You had way to much fun getting leaves tossed at you ;) love the new twist on your intro!! (and I don’t like intros)
Thanks, that's a real compliment if you're not a big fan of intro sequences! If you could only see the outtakes! It was very funny to make!
Thanks Niall, firstly thank you, Hyacinths have rooting system going well, love them in the bulb jar. I never heard of those daffodils, love the pebble idea. Another lovely video share, thank you.
That's brilliant to hear that the Hyacinths are under way! Mine have developed roots too at this stage. Yeah paperwhites are beautiful and definitely worth giving a go!
@@niallgardens thanks so much for all the great info,you are a breath of fresh air. God bless and stay safe.
Hi Niall, love the start of this video beautiful Autumn colours. Love your ideas for planting the narcissi bulbs, as you say they do get quite floppy. It will be interesting to see if the alcohol works.
Fingers crossed! Otherwise I’ll have a load of drunk plants!
Always a really informative and enjoyable video, thanks so much Niall. Am off to do some paper whites !
You're welcome Paula! Let me know how the paper whites do!
so what do you do after ....keep them planted through the years?
Niall, for the bulbs planted in the compost, how much should you water them and how do you control the watering?
I would just give them a little water to keep the soil gently moist but not wet. I'd err on the side of the soil being a little too dry than too wet.
@@niallgardens Great thank you so much. A brilliant video.
A good informative video, but I’m wondering about aftercare. Can these bulbs be stored and used in the same way year after year?
They can be reused year after year, but not indoors. Really they're only prepped to flower like that one time indoors. Instead, once they're finished, I'd plant them in the garden and they should grow again. Hope this helps!
@@niallgardens that is for the information
Another great video 😁. Whats the name of the plant you have in front of you. In the middle of your shot? I have one but don't know what it is. Is it a trailing plant? Because mine has grown very long and I dont know what to do with it. Thank you x
Thanks so much Jenny! Chuffed that you liked it. The plant is a Maranta and you're absolutely right that as it grows, it trails. Mine was starting to look a bit tired a few years ago, so I chopped it into bits and rooted the cuttings in a little jar of water. It roots super-easy and then I planted all of the cuttings (about 7 of them) into the same pot to make a nice dense clump. If you've taken cuttings before, just treat the maranta the same... cut just below a leaf node and place in water... I'm sure you'll have success!
@@niallgardens Thank you so much for that, I will give it a go and see if I can form a nice dense hanging basket 😁 x
First, love the video, it was really helpful. I've been growing my paperwhites since October and they've bloomed already, but what happens after? Will they bloom again? Thanks!
Thanks very much, glad it was useful! So, because the bulbs are specially prepared to bloom indoors, it’s really unlikely that they’d ever bloom indoors again... they’re a bit of an indoors one-shot! However, you can plant them out into the garden and they’ll grow year after year just like a regular daffodil! I’d expect the flowers to be smaller and less prolific. Treat yourself to some new ones each year for indoors, and then you’ll slowly build a collection outside as well!
@@niallgardens Hi Niall, you sure they come back in all zones ?
If using the alcohol method, can you water with alcohol when giving them their first drink after planting? Or would you suggest watering as normal and using alcohol on the next watering? Loving the videos! ☺️
Oh! I think you'll be fine to go with the alcohol mix from the start. Otherwise, I'd start watering with the alcohol included once you see roots developing.
Wait until the flower bud is just out of the bulb before watering with dilute alcohol.
They are so pretty but the scent is not for everyone.
Yeah agreed - it’s fairly strong and distinctive!
