Notes
'Double Fortune' daffodil (Narcissus 'Double Fortune') 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 light yellow blooms are fragrant and open in spring. Bees and butterflies visit them. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything.
Pairs well with Bowl of Beauty peony, Blue fescue, and Irish moss.
