Notes

'Jersey Beauty' daffodil (Narcissus 'Jersey Beauty') 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 have an orange corona and attract bees and butterflies. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. Warnaar & Co bred it.

Pairs well with Blue fescue, Bowl of Beauty peony, and Star magnolia.
