Notes
'Peeping Tom' daffodil (Narcissus 'Peeping Tom') 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 and average to moist soil of most types. Golden yellow flowers are fragrant and attract butterflies and bees. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. P.D. Williams bred it.
Pairs well with Curly Fries hosta, Blue fescue, and Christmas fern.
