Notes
'Golden Torch' daffodil (Narcissus 'Golden Torch') 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 yellow flowers open in spring and attract butterflies and bees. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits. The Brodie of Brodie bred it.
Pairs well with Blue sage, Prairie dropseed, and Coral Sunset peony.
