A single daffodil stands out with its wide central trumpet and surrounding outer petals. Long, slender leaves grow alongside the sturdy stem, reflecting the classic structure of this early spring flower.

Historical Facts About Daffodils

Daffodils contain natural plant compounds that make them distasteful to deer, squirrels, and garden rodents, allowing them to thrive undisturbed in wild meadows. They are among the very first perennial flowers to bloom as winter ends.
