Narcissus ‘Orangery’ is in Division 11a. The petals are white and very broad with a small distinctive point on each tip. The corona is split to the base with the six segments which are opposite the petals and closely overlay them. The corona segments are yellow-orange and usually have a touch of bright yellow at the rim and shoulder. 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.
