Narcissus poeticus


I agree with your version of Narcissus versus daffodils/jonquils, but in MAINE, as you might already know, the Narcissus poeticus is the TRUE Narcissus and is called a Narcissus. Everything else is called a daffodil.
I see by your video that spring has arrived in South Portland! I have daffy envy as my blooms are sparse this year due to mole/vole activity - they had a feast this winter. I guess the bulbs are not toxic to them as they are to us.

Whoops - I guess I wasn't paying attention and just assumed the daff video was posted by DeeDee - Sorry TinycTim, so I must redirect my daffy envy to you. Spring has filled out your Newington garden beds nicely!
