Notes

'Rocky Horror' daffodil (Narcissus 'Rocky Horror') is a bulb for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage 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 early flowers are sulphur yellow and fragrant, with a lighter tone at the rim of the corona. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. Bees and butterflies visit the blooms.

Pairs well with Paris coral bells, Blue fescue, and Greig's tulip.
