Notes
'Spencer Tracy' daffodil (Narcissus 'Spencer Tracy') 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 have pure white petals and a broad, golden orange cup with heavily frilled edges. They attract butterflies and bees. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits.
Pairs well with Lenten rose, Blue fescue, Buckeye Belle peony, and Serviceberry.
