Notes
'Generalife' daffodil (Narcissus 'Generalife') 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 fragrant flowers have pale buttercup yellow petals around a deep orange cup. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. G. Lubbe & Zn. bred it.
Pairs well with Creeping thyme, Greig's tulip, and Blue fescue.
