Notes

'Sonar' daffodil (Narcissus 'Sonar') is a bulb for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 3, or down to -40°F (-40°C). This plant likes full or part sun, average moisture, and sandy, loamy, or clay soil. The yellow petals and cup have an orange-red band, and the flowers are fragrant. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. Butterflies and bees visit the blooms.

Pairs well with Halcyon hosta, Picture tulip, Shirley Temple peony, and Blonde Ambition blue grama.
