Notes
'Florissant' daffodil (Narcissus 'Florissant') 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 fragrant flowers attract butterflies and bees. C.A. van der Wereld bred it. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal.
Pairs well with Buckeye Belle peony, Blue fescue, and Greig's tulip.
