Notes

'Chérie' daffodil (Narcissus 'Chérie') 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. W.F. Mitchell bred it, and the fragrant flowers have ivory white petals around a smooth, greyish pink cup. Bees and butterflies visit the blooms. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first.

Pairs well with Greig's tulip, Cora Louise peony, and Blue sage.
