Notes

'Gigantic Star' daffodil (Narcissus 'Gigantic Star') is a bulb for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. The fragrant blooms open in spring and attract butterflies and bees. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. Plants reach 12 to 24 inches tall.

Pairs well with Accent daffodil, Apeldoorn tulip, and Jack Frost Siberian bugloss.
