Daffodils and tulips in a vase - can that be good?
A colorful spring bouquet is on the table. Tulips and daffodils make each other shine with their bright colors. But the next day the whole thing just looks like a tragedy ...
These two early bloomers are not 'green'
Tulips and daffodils are both premature flowering plants. But they have different requirements and in a vase they do not get along. The troublemakers who are reluctant to adapt are the poisonous daffodils. They keep competitors off their lungs by cutting out harmful substances harmful to other crops.
The mucilage is contained in the stems. He penetrates into the vase water as soon as the daffodils are cut and placed in the vase. Tulip stems in the same vase fall victim to the mucilage. The substances penetrate into the pathways and clog them, so that water can no longer flow to the flowers. The result: the tulips wilt prematurely.
