Notes
'Unsurpassable' daffodil (Narcissus 'Unsurpassable') 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 and average to moist soil of most types. It bears fragrant yellow blooms that attract butterflies and bees. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. G. Lubbe & Zn. bred it.
Pairs well with Snowdrop, Lenten rose, and Siberian bugloss.
