Notes

'Barrett Browning' daffodil (Narcissus 'Barrett Browning') is a bulb for borders, containers, rock 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 and average to moist soil of most types. The white blooms are fragrant and attract butterflies and bees. J.W.A. Lefeber bred it. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice.

Pairs well with Maureen tulip, Fringed bleeding heart, and Jack Frost Siberian bugloss.
