Notes

'Careysville' daffodil (Narcissus 'Careysville') 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 rarely make it their first choice. The creamy white petals surround a buff yellow cup with a frilled, rolled rim. J.L. Richardson bred it.

Pairs well with Common blue violet, Christmas fern, and Karl Rosenfield peony.
