Notes
'Wrestler' daffodil (Narcissus 'Wrestler') 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. The fragrant flowers have pale buttercup yellow petals that bend back from a darker cup with a rolled, crenate rim. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. Bees and butterflies visit the blooms.
Pairs well with Bowl of Beauty peony, Hyssop, Royal Purple smoketree, and Big bluestem.
