Notes
'Little Witch' daffodil (Narcissus 'Little Witch') is a bulb for borders, rock gardens, containers, and cut flowers. 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 browse other plants first. This dwarf grows about 10 inches tall and bears fragrant yellow flowers. Mrs. R.O. Backhouse bred its cylindrical, ribbed cup, which is darker than the petals.
Pairs well with Common blue violet, Blue fescue, and Lily of the valley.
