Notes

'Cock Robin' daffodil (Narcissus 'Cock Robin') is a bulb for borders, containers, cottage gardens, and rock 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. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. The fragrant flowers attract bees and butterflies. C.F. Coleman bred it.

Pairs well with Obsidian coral bells, Blue fescue, and Greig's tulip.
