Notes
'Tricollet' daffodil (Narcissus 'Tricollet') 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. It is not a favorite of deer or rabbits, though hungry ones will eat almost anything. The fragrant white flowers have an orange corona and attract butterflies and bees. J. Gerritsen & Zoon bred it.
Pairs well with Picture tulip, Spanish bluebell, Big Daddy hosta, and Prairie dropseed.
