I bought a large pot of spent daffodils last April from my local garden centre. I was expecting a beautiful pot of golden daffodils earlier this year but instead all I got was one golden daffodil and a load of long green leaves! Any idea what went wrong?

Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.
