Notes
'Bodilly' daffodil (Narcissus 'Bodilly') 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 fragrant white flowers have a funnel-shaped, greenish yellow cup with a frilled rim, and bees and butterflies visit them. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits. P.D. Williams bred it.
Pairs well with Garlic chives, Christmas fern, and Prairie dropseed.
