Narcissus poeticus, commonly known as the Poet's Daffodil, is a late-blooming perennial bulb celebrated for its intense fragrance and elegant form. It features pure white petals surrounding a small, yellow corona with a distinct red rim. Growing 30 to 60 cm tall, it produces narrow, strap-shaped green leaves in clumps. This species thrives in full sun to part shade and prefers moist, well-drained soil. It is ideal for naturalizing in meadows or borders and makes an excellent cut flower.
