Notes
'Avril' daffodil (Narcissus 'Avril') is a bulb for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. The fragrant yellow flowers have strong orange cups and attract butterflies and bees.
Pairs well with Foam flower, Star magnolia, Blue fescue, and Sarah Bernhardt peony.
