Pink Valley Double Daffodil
Narcissus ‘Pink Valley’ is in Division 2. It blooms in mid spring with roundish flowers. The petals are white and very broad, while the soft pink corona is broad and bowl shaped. The corona fades to a pale pink at the rim. 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.
