Notes

'Frigid' daffodil (Narcissus 'Frigid') 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 scented, ice white double flowers open late and have a tightly frilled center with emerald green at the base. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits.

Pairs well with Blue fescue, Sarah Bernhardt peony, and Inkberry.
