Notes
'Easter Joy' daffodil (Narcissus 'Easter Joy') 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. It grows about 14 inches tall and bears fragrant yellow flowers that attract butterflies and bees. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. Plant it in groups for the best show.
Pairs well with Greig's tulip, Karl Rosenfield peony, and Hicksii yew.
