Notes

'Suzy' daffodil (Narcissus 'Suzy') 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. It grows about 18 inches tall and bears two or three fragrant yellow flowers per stem, each with a strong orange cup. Bees and butterflies visit the blooms. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by.

Pairs well with Blue fescue, Raspberry Sundae peony, and The President clematis.
