Since the Daffodils have a long root system that reaches about 30 cm deep, select a container or grow bag that is at least 30 cm deep or more to avoid repotting or root rot. You can plant 3-4 bulbs in a 30 cm pot or grow bag and 1 bulb in a 15-20 cm pot. Plant Daffodil flower bulbs when the soil temperature is around 4 to 21°C.
