Notes
'Guiding Star' daffodil (Narcissus 'Guiding Star') 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. Its ivory white petals surround a bright orange cup, and the fragrant flowers draw bees and butterflies. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. Warnaar & Co bred it.
Pairs well with Blue fescue, Coral Sunset peony, and Christmas fern.
