Notes
'Saint Agnes' daffodil (Narcissus 'Saint Agnes') is a bulb for borders, cottage gardens, rock gardens, and containers. 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 have creamy white petals around a shallow, bright reddish orange cup. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. Butterflies and bees visit the blooms.
Pairs well with Paula Fay peony, Blue fescue, and Niobe clematis.
