Sir Winston Churchill Double Daffodil
Narcissus ‘Sir Winston Churchill’ is in Division 4. It blooms late in the season with an average of 4 strongly scented flowers per stem. The flowers are doubles, 2 ½ inches wide, with multiple whorls of white petals. The orange corona segments are clustered among the center whorl of petals. 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.
