It's looks like it's dying

I read all of your guy's advice and it looks like it's slowly dying. What should I do? It's too cold for me to move it outside, plus all the bugs.

Hi Cruz, welcome to Greg!

What part of the plant has you worried that its dying?

Daffodils are perennial and have a pretty short bloom cycle. There is a good chance that it's just going through its natural cycle post-bloom. Once the blooms die you may have a lot of leaves left before they will die, too.

You can harvest the bulbs and plant them outside in the fall if you'd like.

If you'd rather keep them in the pot, you can let them go dormant and wake them up in the spring, too!
The leaves die naturally after blooming. Let them turn yellow and dry up before removing them so they will continue to nourish the bulbs, and then you can plant outside in spring.
@PlantMompy Oh, I didn't know that the leaves die after a bloom. Thanks!
@Tropicalgia Thanks!!
You're welcome!
