Notes

'High Life' daffodil (Narcissus 'High Life') 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 pure white petals and an orange cup edged in golden yellow, with a deeply notched rim as if fringed. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. Bees and butterflies visit the blooms.

Pairs well with Blue fescue, Coral Sunset peony, and Blue sage.
