Notes

'Mulatto' daffodil (Narcissus 'Mulatto') is a bulb for borders, containers, cottage gardens, and rock 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 early sulphur yellow flowers are fragrant and draw butterflies and bees. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. C.G. van Tubergen bred it.

Pairs well with Blue fescue, Buckeye Belle peony, and Lily.
