Best Answer

Though they are both flowering, herbaceous, bulb perennials, the tulip and the daffodil are genetically noncompatible. The daffodil is of the Family Amaryllidaceae and the tulip is of the Family Liliaceae. That's just too distant for the genes to line up properly for cross-pollination. Therefore, nothing happens except a waste of good pollen when pollen from one visits the stigma of the other.
