Notes
'Petrel' daffodil (Narcissus 'Petrel') is a bulb for borders, cut flowers, containers, 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 white flowers are fragrant and attract butterflies and bees. It stays 6 to 12 inches tall, so it fits small spaces. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits.
Pairs well with Blue fescue, Greig's tulip, Paula Fay peony, and Common blue violet.
