Notes

'Blarney' daffodil (Narcissus 'Blarney') 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. The fragrant flowers have snow white petals around a broad, ribbed, orange cup with a creamy yellow rim. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits. J.L. Richardson bred it.

Pairs well with Lamb’s ear, Blue fescue, and Bartzella peony.
