Narcissus
Also called Daffodils, Garden Daffodil, Daffodil, Narcissus, Double Daffodil, Narcisa
Narcissus is a genus of spring-flowering bulbs, with daffodils and jonquils the best-known members, grown for their yellow, white, orange or pink trumpet-shaped blooms. Plant the bulbs in autumn in well-drained soil and let the foliage die back naturally after flowering.
Narcissus is a genus of predominantly spring flowering perennial plants of the amaryllis family, Amaryllidaceae. Various common names including daffodil, narcissus (plural narcissi), and jonquil, are used to describe some or all members of the genus.
Narcissus has conspicuous flowers with six petal-like tepals surmounted by a cup- or trumpet-shaped corona. The flowers are generally white and yellow (also orange or pink in garden varieties), with either uniform or contrasting coloured tepals and corona.
