Notes

'Golden Rapture' daffodil (Narcissus 'Golden Rapture') 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 yellow blooms are scented and attract butterflies and bees. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. J.L. Richardson bred it.

Pairs well with Blue sage, Prairie dropseed, and Cora Louise peony.
