Fragrant and fascinating, Sulphur Queen Peruvian Daffodil is reminiscent of a daffodil, with golden cups and leafless stalks. This RHS Award of Merit winner adds a touch of exoticism to your garden, with arching outer petals, wildly graceful stamens, and a spicy, citrus scent. The blossoms emerge in early to mid-summer from low-growing, strappy foliage. Grows with ease in a sunny, well-drained spot. (Hymenocallis)
To determine if a plant is sufficiently cold hardy, the USDA created numbered zones indicating winter low
temperatures; the lower the zone number the colder the winter.
If the coldest winter temperature expected in your area is -15°F (zone 5) then any plants rated zones 3-5 will
survive the winter temperatures in your area.
If you live in very warm winter areas (zones 9-11) plants with zones 3-4 ratings are not recommended. The lack
of freezing winter temperatures do not provide a time for winter dormancy (rest).
Peruvian Daffodil is one of the great wildflower blooms of the South American tropics. They're famous for their very strong sweet fragrance, they grow quickly, and they make a wonderful show in the garden or in a vase.
