Blind Daffs , Lift or Leave ?

A few of the Daffodils I planted last year are blind . I have been lucky enough to not have blind ones before. Do I leave these , hoping they will flower next year , or lift and discard them ?

 

I would leave them....
Three autumns ago we planted our steep bank with daffs, to create a "natural" bank of flowers. The mice had a field-day, and a lot of the daffs they left were the smaller ones, which were blind. Two years on, most flowered this spring, and the few remaining blind ones are sending up more leaves, so will probably flower next year. The advantage of leaving the blind ones in situ, if you can, is that each year the roots are pulling the bulb down, so when they flower they will be at a really good planting depth. (May not be relevant for you, but planting in sand on a bank means its nigh on impossible to get the appropriate planting depth)

 

I grow a "few" Daffodils @HarryS . I agree with @Sian in Belgium , leave well alone and don't be in a hurry to remove any leaves. I only ever lift and replant when mine get too crowded which will eventually stop them flowering. However I am NOT lifting what you see below which is only about 1/4 of what I have. I planted them but I will leave it to whoever is here when I am dead and buried to lift and replant this lot when they start to not flower so well!.

 

you only planted them last year. then leave them.

 

I lift blind daffs and replant deeper. Also I check to see if they are congested and if so I divide them. A third thing I do is feed until the foliage has died right down

 

Thanks all Leave them it is , I can't plant them deeper they are in container. I do give a small feed as the foliage dies back .
