Daffodils, Pentecost lilies or narcissus?

Then it was March, and the struggle between winter and spring infant is to take to the touch. Along with snowdrops daffodils are among the most popular signs of spring and fortunately we can take daffodils with inside. Let's look at this bulbous plant, which with the sun's colors remind us that the first warm day of spring after all ahead.


Daffodils grow and bloom best when they have plenty of moisture, so do not let the soil dry out. The more water they get, the higher they can become. They bloom best when they are light and preferably not too hot. Cut off the faded flowers of, so get the onions more power.

Daffodil - Narcissus - is with its lamp-like and pure form also very decorative as a cut flower in a vase. Although they are super popular at Easter, there is no reason to wait - send them already now as a spring greeting!

Did you know that…


Narcissism, overdriven love for self, comes from the legend of the young Narcissus in Greek mythology. He was so in love with himself that he was staring at his own reflection in the water until he eventually fell in and drowned. Since he was turned into a flower.

In Wales it is said that the one sees season's first daffodil get 12 months of prosperity.

Daffodils symbolize friendship, bravery, respect, faithfulness and of course Easter.
