Overview

Daffodils (Narcissus spp.) are among the most popular spring flowers, known for their showy, cheerful blooms. Daffodils come in many colors, including yellow, white, pink and orange. These flowers have a trumpet-shaped center that is surrounded by six petals. Daffodils require full sun and well-draining soil to thrive and they can be a great addition to beds, borders, wildflower meadows, and rock gardens. Their bulbs will need to be planted in the fall and once established, daffodil plants are very low maintenance. Daffodils signify joy, hope, rebirth, truth, and start a new beginning.
