Notes
'Court Martial' daffodil (Narcissus 'Court Martial') 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. J.L. Richardson bred it, and the fragrant yellow flowers attract butterflies and bees. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. The orange cup has a ruffled rim, and the plant stands about 16 inches tall.
Pairs well with Lily of the valley, Prairie dropseed, and Monsieur Jules Elie peony.
