Notes
'Yellow Dawn' daffodil (Narcissus 'Yellow Dawn') 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 tend to browse other plants first. The fragrant flowers have yellow petals and a frilled orange cup, and they attract butterflies and bees.
Pairs well with Creeping thyme, Blue fescue, and Kansas peony.
