Notes
'Sailboat' daffodil (Narcissus 'Sailboat') is a bulb for borders, containers, cottage gardens, and rock gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. The flowers are fragrant and attract butterflies and bees. W.G. Pannill bred it.
Pairs well with Segovia daffodil, Banja Luka tulip, Armenian grape hyacinth, and Jack Frost Siberian bugloss.
