Unfortunately, there is no one problem—or at least no single one we can identify. Daffodils fail to bloom when or if they . . . 

• do not get at least a half day of sunlight

• are in an area with poor drainage

• have been fed with a high-nitrogen fertilizer OR have not been fertilized in years (a 5-10-10 mix when planted, when leaves emerge, and at bloom is recommended)

• experienced a heat wave last spring

• have a virus, e.g., yellow stripe (such lines appear in the foliage)

• foliage was removed last season before bulbs could replenish the bulbs; leaving the foliage for six weeks is advised

Those are most of the common reasons. Perhaps one is yours?
