Hi,

Are you talking about a mulched flower bed beneath a tree?

I would bet a well maintained, mulched flower bed would be a fraction of the competition of turf grass growing right up to the trunk.

Has anyone planted daffodils or other bulbs under fruit trees?
Daffodils do most of their business before the trees come into leaf,
so the shade shouldn't be much of a problem. But how badly do the
daffodils compete with the trees for nutrients, and water? I'm
thinking of putting in some daffodils under my little apricot.

Thanks,
Ginda
