My miniature daffodils were sitting in the water today. It was raining a lot in the morning.

Shirley - when I will be re-potting them I'll make sure the drainage will be better:)
Junna - glad I did:)
Bjs - that's for sure:)

not sure if you have solved the problem if you own a small electric drill you could drill several more holes on the side of the pot near bottom or a piece of wire 3 to 6mm dia heated one end over a cooker will easily burn a few holes through .

Brian - it happened when we had a really heavy downpour - I just planted the bulbs last autumn so there is not much of the roots yet. guess soil got bit compacted and couldn't cope with the amount of water. But I'll remember your advise about the holes, thank you:)
