Notes
'Tibet' daffodil (Narcissus 'Tibet') 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, pale creamy white flowers have a short yellow cup with a frilled mouth, and bees and butterflies visit them. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. G.L. Wilson bred it.
Pairs well with Astilbe, Flowering quince, and Coral Charm peony.
