March Sunshine Cyclamineus Daffodil

Narcissus ‘March Sunshine’ is in Division 6. This is a dwarf cultivar that blooms in early to mid spring. The petals are bright yellow and reflexed, while the orangey yellow corona is long and narrow with a straight mouth. The bulbs are toxic and will not be eaten by deer or rabbits. The name Narcissus comes from the Greek word for narcotic and is tied to the myth of a young man known as Narcissus who fell in love with his own reflection. When he drowned in the pool where he had been admiring himself, Narcissus flowers grew up around the pool.
