Bulbs are a wonderfully colorful and sometimes inexpensive permanent display

Daffodil bulbs provide a wonderfully colorful array every Spring and just a small clump of 20 to 30 bulbs can naturalize into waves of hundreds of yellow, cream and/or white blooms in the years to come.  A small investment in money and time now (Fall is the appropriate time to plant Daffodil bulbs) will really pay off in the long run.

A few low plantings over the bulbs will provide a welcome cover for the dying Daffodil bulbs as they fade.  Don't cut the fading leaves, as they provide nutrients to the bulb for the next year of growth.
