Notes
'Louis Armstrong' daffodil (Narcissus 'Louis Armstrong') 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 open in mid-season and attract butterflies and bees.
