Notes
'Avalanche' daffodil (Narcissus 'Avalanche') is a bulb for borders, containers, cottage gardens, and cut flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 6, or down to -10°F (-23°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. The white blooms are fragrant and attract butterflies and bees. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits. It also tolerates drought and salt.
Pairs well with Purissima tulip, Armenian grape hyacinth, and Fringed bleeding heart.
