Notes
'Bizerta' daffodil (Narcissus 'Bizerta') is a bulb for borders, containers, cottage gardens, and cut flowers. 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. The white petals look thick and waxy around a yellow, funnel-shaped cup with a frilled rim, and the blooms are fragrant. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. J.L. Richardson bred it.
Pairs well with Greig's tulip, Prairie dropseed, and Christmas fern.
