Notes
'General Patton' daffodil (Narcissus 'General Patton') is a bulb for borders, containers, cottage gardens, and cut flowers. 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. The ivory petals surround a yellow trumpet, and the blooms are fragrant. Bees and butterflies visit the flowers. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice.
Pairs well with Black Hero tulip, Spanish bluebell, Red Charm peony, and Blonde Ambition blue grama.
