I have planted several different pink daffodils over the past years. I am noticing that the color is fading on a number of these. What would come up as distinctly pink a few years ago, comes up a peachy shade on some and is pretty much pale yellow with a slight blush on others. Is this common? Is there anything I can add to the soil to get the more pink shades to return? They're still pretty, I'm just rethinking any future pink purchases. These are poor photos, but you can see what I mean. It's happened with different cultivars in different parts of my yard.
