Notes

'February Gold' daffodil (Narcissus 'February Gold') is a bulb for borders, containers, rock gardens, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. The yellow flowers are fragrant, and bees and butterflies visit them. Once settled in, the plant also tolerates drought and salt.

Pairs well with Liberty hosta, Blue fescue, and Greig's tulip.
