Notes
'Ambergate' daffodil (Narcissus 'Ambergate') is a bulb for borders, containers, cottage gardens, and cut flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and sandy, loamy, or clay soil. The fragrant copper-orange flowers have an orange-red corona and attract butterflies and bees. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first.
Pairs well with Picture tulip, Spanish bluebell, Krossa Regal hosta, and Christmas fern.
