Narcissus refers to a figure in Greek mythology, a young man who fell in love with his reflection and was transformed into a flower, and the genus of plants, including daffodils. Daffodils are commonly known as Narcissus, so they are the same plant with different names.
Narcissus
Daffodils, sometimes called trumpet narcissus, are bulb-forming plants in the amaryllis family. They’re perennial, deer-resistant, easy to grow, and magnificently beautiful. These fall-planted flower bulbs are a favorite in the spring garden.
