Notes
'Margaret Mitchell' daffodil (Narcissus 'Margaret Mitchell') 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 flowers are fragrant and attract butterflies and bees. G. Lubbe & Zoon bred it. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits.
Pairs well with Greig's tulip, Lamb’s ear, and Red Charm peony.
