Notes

'Tudor Minstrel' daffodil (Narcissus 'Tudor Minstrel') is a bulb for borders, containers, cottage gardens, and cut flowers. 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. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. The fragrant flowers have creamy white petals around a vivid yellow cup with a frilled mouth. They attract butterflies and bees.

Pairs well with Greig's tulip, Irish moss, and Cora Louise peony.
