Notes

'Loch Hope' daffodil (Narcissus 'Loch Hope') is a bulb for borders, containers, cottage gardens, and rock gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and sandy, loamy, or clay soil. The flowers have greenish-yellow petals and an orange-red cup, and they smell sweet. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. Bees and butterflies visit the blooms in spring.

Pairs well with Little Beauty tulip, Balloon flower, and Red twig dogwood.
