I would guess that almost everybody knows what a daffodil looks like, although some might not know of its Latin Name. There are probably thousands out there to choose from, so I’m only going to present a very small number for you to consider. The one at the top is called ‘Peeping Tom’, and if you saw a drift of them, you would immediately know why, because they seem to be staring at you.

This is a ‘Pheasant’s Eye’ Narcissus, for obvious reasons.

This is a miniature, only 15 Cms tall, called Narcissus cycleminius.
