Notes
'Signal Light' daffodil (Narcissus 'Signal Light') 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. The fragrant blooms have creamy white petals around a frilled orange cup, and bees and butterflies visit them. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. J.L. Richardson bred it.
Pairs well with Greig's tulip, Shirley Temple peony, and Heather.
