Notes
'Fakir' daffodil (Narcissus 'Fakir') is a bulb for borders, containers, cottage gardens, 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 flowers are fragrant and attract butterflies and bees. G.G. van Tubergen bred it. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice.
Pairs well with Cat mint, Cora Louise peony, and Buffalo grass.
