Abba Daffodil, Double Daffodil
This sweet daffodil has clean white, double flowers with hints of orange towards their centers. These appear in early to mid-spring and combine well with hyacinths, violas and windflowers.
Daffodils are hardy, long-lived, clump-forming bulbs that are good for naturalizing. Unlike tulips, they are poisonous, so their bulbs are not eaten by small mammals and their green tops are not browsed by deer.
These are some of the easiest bulbs to grow. They prefer full to part sun and require average to fertile soil. After blooming, it is good to let their green tops photosynthesize to allow them to store plenty of fuel for next spring’s display. Once their leaves start to turn yellow, they can be cut to the ground.
