Narcissus is a genus of mainly hardy, mostly spring-flowering, bulbous perennials in the Amaryllidaceae family. Various common names including daffodil, narcissus, and jonquil are used to describe all or some of the genus. They are native to meadows and woods in Europe, North Africa, and West Asia, with a center of distribution in the Western Mediterranean. The number of distinct species varies widely depending on how they are classified, with the disparity due to similarity between species and hybridization between species. The number of defined species has ranged widely depending on the authority.
Narcissus obvallaris is an heirloom species commonly known as Tenby Daffodil. Its common name refers to the Welsh town where it grows wild, perhaps introduced by the Phoenicians. Large, bright Narcissus blooms are for many gardeners the first visible signs of spring. These vigorous, long-lived bulbs thrive joyously in sunny, well-drained places, are shunned by hungry deer and voles, and will thrive and multiply with little care on your part, creating a glorious landscape and a horticultural legacy. |
