Notes
'Roxane' daffodil (Narcissus 'Roxane') 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 fragrant flowers face slightly downward and have milk white petals around a broad, flared cup that opens primrose yellow and fades to creamy white. C.G. van Tubergen bred it. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first.
Pairs well with Karl Rosenfield peony, Creeping thyme, and Nelly Moser clematis.
