Notes

'Prinses Irene' daffodil (Narcissus 'Prinses Irene') is a bulb for borders, containers, cottage gardens, and cut flowers. 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. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. The flowers are fragrant and draw bees and butterflies. C.A. van der Wereld bred it.

Pairs well with Foxglove, Greig's tulip, and Blue fescue.
