Notes

'Velocity' daffodil (Narcissus 'Velocity') 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. Its fragrant blooms attract butterflies and bees. R. & E. Havens bred it. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice.

Pairs well with Snowdrop, Dutch crocus, and Lenten rose.
