Notes
'Milan' daffodil (Narcissus 'Milan') is a bulb for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage 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 fragrant white petals surround a yellow cup with a red rim, and bees and butterflies visit the blooms. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. A.M. Wilson bred it.
Pairs well with Little Beauty tulip, Golden Tiara hosta, and Prairie dropseed.
