Notes

'La Belle' daffodil (Narcissus 'La Belle') 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 blooms have an orange-yellow cup with a reddish orange rim, and butterflies and bees visit them. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits. Barr & Sons bred it.

Pairs well with Greig's tulip, Blue fescue, Balloon flower, and Bowl of Beauty peony.
