About This Plant
Narcissus 'Tete a Tete' (Daffodil), 'Tete a Tete', is valued for seasonal interest and the role it plays in PNW garden borders.
Daffodils (Narcissus) are reliable spring-blooming bulbs with yellow, white, or bicolored flowers. Plant bulbs in fall.
Full sun to part shade suits this species. Plant in well-drained soil. Hardy USDA Zone 3 to 8. Deer-resistant due to toxicity. Allow foliage to die back naturally.
For a Pacific Northwest native perennial of similar character, consider Aquilegia formosa (Western Red Columbine), Tellima grandiflora (Fringecups), or Dicentra formosa (Pacific Bleeding Heart) , all support native pollinators.
