Notes
'Vigil' daffodil (Narcissus 'Vigil') 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 ice white flowers are fragrant and attract bees and butterflies. G.L. Wilson bred it. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal.
Pairs well with Blue fescue, Coral Sunset peony, and Little Lime panicle hydrangea.
