The paperwhite tazetta types that require little or no cold period typically aren't hardy here, but most Narcissus are (including several tazettas). Some of the daffs that naturalize in the north don't perform well in the south because they require longer, colder winter to bloom. One of the things I love about daffodils is there are varieties that perform well in most climates.

The front yard of this house was almost all Star of Bethlehem when I moved here. The lawn part still is, but I've worked hard to get it out of the gardens.
