Notes

'Jenny' daffodil (Narcissus 'Jenny') is a bulb for borders, containers, cottage gardens, and rock gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. The flowers have a white perianth and a lemon-yellow trumpet. They are fragrant and attract butterflies and bees.

Pairs well with Spanish bluebell, Royal Standard hosta, and Little Beauty tulip.
