Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Flowering in March and April, 'Golden Bells' is a deeper yellow form of the lilliputian hoop petticoat daffodils. Around its funnel corolla are narrow petal spokes, rendering this daffodil all the cuter. Delightful and safe in a pot, or at the front of the border, but not where dogs, children, or clumsy feet might tread. Mulch before winter for a little extra protection. 5" tall; deer-resistant.Minimum temperature: 10?F
