Notes
'Fruit Cup' daffodil (Narcissus 'Fruit Cup') is a bulb for borders, containers, cottage gardens, and cut flowers. 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 blooms are greenish white with a pale yellow cup, and bees and butterflies visit them. G.E. Morrill bred it. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by.
Pairs well with Pink Impression tulip, Blue fescue, and Christmas fern.
