Marilyn Hello, friends in the gardening world. Someone
accidentally cut off the leaves of my narcissus at ground level. I was
letting them die naturally to fertilize the bulbs, because I read that
was the right thing to do. Is there something, such as some kind of
fertilizer that I could apply to make up for the fact that the leaves have
been cut off? Will they ever bloom again? This year was the first year they
bloomed after a lot of labor to get the bulbs in last fall!

usually its good to let the leaves die back so that the good can go to the bulb but in this case i wouldnt worry what is done is done and im sure that your bulbs will bloom again next year with no really ill effects.
u might have flowers that are maybe a bit smaller than this years bloom but thats about it. good luck, sockiescat.
