When to plant daffodils in Poznań

The Poznań dates are calculated from the observed last spring frost — a 2016–2025 mean of 18 April — rather than from a latitude estimate or a national calendar. The frost-free season here averages 212 days.

These come from the ERA5 reanalysis on a roughly 9 km grid, so they describe the area rather than your plot. A hollow, a frost pocket or an exposed site regularly runs several degrees colder, so use the cautious date for a decision you cannot undo.

The year in Poznań

What can move the date

Plant early — September, well before tulips — so the roots are down before winter. Rodents and deer leave them alone, which makes them the safest bulb to naturalise in grass.

Final spacing: 12 × 20 cm. Soil: pH 6–7.
