Notes

'Queen Juliana' daffodil (Narcissus 'Queen Juliana') 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. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. The fragrant blooms appear in spring and attract bees and butterflies. G.L. Wilson bred it.

Pairs well with Karl Rosenfield peony, Greig's tulip, and Irish moss.
