Daffodils

 

 

 

 


The cheerful, nodding heads of daffodils are the true harbingers of spring. Brighten up your borders, containers and even hanging baskets with these delightful flowers. Daffodils are easy to grow and require little maintenance. They come in many different shapes and colours that, with careful selection of varieties, can bloom for four months a year. The scientific name of the daffodil is named after the Greek god Narcissus, who looked into a pool, saw his reflection and fell in love with himself.
