Hello Christy,
In one of my large tb bed I have planted lots of different coloured
daffodils and anemones. They have been there for quite a few years and have
done very well. I find that I can divide the tb's and lift the daffs at the
same time in the season , they seem to complement each other. I dont have
any reblooming tb's so they arent blothered by the massive up heaval , all
the colours when everyone does their thing is amazing.There is a quite a
colour range of daffs these days, not just the boring old yellow ones, so it
might be worth having a go......Hope this is of some interest, Wendy
