Notes

'Little Beauty' daffodil (Narcissus 'Little Beauty') is a bulb for borders, containers, rock gardens, 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. It stays dwarf at about 4 inches tall and has fragrant, light yellow blooms that attract butterflies and bees. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. J. Gerritsen & Zoon bred it.

Pairs well with Common blue violet, Blue fescue, Christmas fern, and Karl Rosenfield peony.
