Notes

'Larkwhistle' daffodil (Narcissus 'Larkwhistle') is a bulb for borders, containers, cottage gardens, and rock 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. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. The fragrant yellow flowers attract butterflies and bees. L. Palmer bred it.
