Daffodil
Common names: Daffodil, narcissus, jonquil.
Daffodils form a group of large-flowered members of the genus Narcissus.
Six outer petals surround a cup creating a trumpet-style look of this cut flower.
Some stems produce one flower; others produce clusters.
The outer petals are yellow or white; cups may be white, yellow, orange or salmon, and some have an orange edge.
The traditional daffodil has a golden yellow color all over, but the corona may often feature a contrasting color.
Breeders have developed some daffodils with a double or triple row of petals, making them resemble a small golden ball.
Other cultivars have frilled petals, or an elongated or compressed central corona.
Special care: Daffodils secrete a sap that can harm other flowers if not properly conditioned.
If mixed with other flowers, do not recut as you will cause sap to be released again. |
