Notes

'Mrs John Hoog' daffodil (Narcissus 'Mrs John Hoog') 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 flowers have creamy white petals and a lemon yellow corona with a frilled mouth. Bees and butterflies visit the blooms. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal.

Pairs well with Blue fescue, Bowl of Beauty peony, and Nelly Moser clematis.
