Notes
'Early Light' daffodil (Narcissus 'Early Light') is a bulb for borders, cut flowers, containers, 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. The fragrant flowers attract butterflies and bees. It also tolerates drought and salt. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal.
Pairs well with Creeping thyme, Sarah Bernhardt peony, and Blue fescue.
