DAFFODILS & TULIPS
Hi All
I am looking to plant some spring flowers onto a lawn and I am looking for some advice on a professional daffodil and tulip display (just like you would see around around big gardens to visit or Buckingham Palace). Daffodils around tulips or vice versa? If I plant now would they flower earlier than stated on package? And how best to plant large amounts onto a lawn. Many thanks.

Tulips don't really come back year on year, except for the species ones and a few others. Again- if you live in an area that can give tulips the exact requirements they need, they might come back for a few years. Many commercial displays will treat them as annuals anyway - they'll be replaced every year to ensure a good display.
Checking heights and timings is key, but even then, it can vary as there are several factors which can change those.
It still comes down to timing, as the little ones are often much earlier, as @Buttercupdays says, so it's harder to have them all flowering at the same time
