Notes

'Flyer' daffodil (Narcissus 'Flyer') is a bulb for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and sandy, loamy, or clay soil. Its yellow blooms are fragrant and attract butterflies and bees. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. Plants reach 12 to 24 inches tall.

Pairs well with Spanish bluebell, Red Charm peony, and Blue grama.
