Narcissus
Also know as the Daffodil. I love these flower's. I feel as though most people just disregard and ignore them. I find such beauty in this Gene. So many variates, color's and size's to choose from. Ive decided I will just show you a glimpse of some of the more common variates and color's that come with this stunning flower. Narcissus also make a great cut flower. Don't over look this beauty.

   
 

Quick Note - Daffodil is said to have originated from north Africa. The Roman Soldiers carried the Narcissus bulb as a healing tool. The slimy juices of the bulb where said to glue together cuts and wounds caused from sward's and spear's. Fortunately now we know this plant is poisonous. At one time the wild Daffodils of England where hunted down to nearly extinction all Because of their rise in popularity. They where stolen from the meadow's and brook's until there was a public outcry. For the first time in recorded history masses of people in England protested and demanded Legislation for the Conservation of their Wildlife.
