Notes
'Petit Four' daffodil (Narcissus 'Petit Four') 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. Its white outer petals surround double apricot-pink centers, and the blooms are fragrant. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. Rijnveld & Sons bred it, and butterflies and bees visit the flowers.
Pairs well with Black Hero tulip, Spanish bluebell, Maiden pink, and Sedge.
