Notes

'Honeybird' daffodil (Narcissus 'Honeybird') is a bulb for borders, containers, cottage gardens, and cut flowers. 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 greenish yellow petals and a cylindrical cup that fades to white, and they attract bees and butterflies. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits. G.E. Mitsch bred it.

Pairs well with Blue fescue, Greig's tulip, and Red Charm peony.
