Notes
'Cushendall' daffodil (Narcissus 'Cushendall') 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. The pure white petals overlap around a frilled, ribbed cup with a dark green base, and the flowers are fragrant. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. Bees and butterflies visit the blooms.
Pairs well with Blue fescue, Monsieur Jules Elie peony, and Christmas fern.
