Notes

'Gamay' daffodil (Narcissus 'Gamay') is a bulb for borders, cut flowers, containers, and rock 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. Bees and butterflies visit the fragrant ivory white blooms, which have a mimosa yellow cup. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. J. Gerritsen & Zn. bred it.

Pairs well with Creeping thyme, Pink Hawaiian Coral peony, and Blue fescue.
