What type of flower is a daffodil?

Answer 1

Let's look at the scientific classification to find out about the daffodil:

• Kindom; Plantae
• Division: Angiosperms (aka Magnoliophyta) are the flowering, seed-producing plants
• Group: Monocots (one cotyledon)
• Order: Asparagales (bulbs)
• Family: Amaryllidaceae (Herbaceous plant with showy, lily-like flowers)
• Subfamily: Amaryllidaceae
• Genus: Narcissus

Right away, the kingdom is Plantae, so the daffodil is a plant.

Angiosperm tells us that it is a flowering plant producing seed, and farther down Amaryllidaceae lets us know that the flowers are definitely ornamental.

Answer 3

Let's look at the scientific classification to find out if the daffodil is a flowering plant:

• Kindom; Plantae
• Division: Angiosperms (aka Magnoliophyta) are the flowering, seed-producing plants
• Group: Monocots (one cotyledon)
• Order: Asparagales (bulbs)
• Family: Amaryllidaceae (Herbaceous plant with showy, lily-like flowers)
• Subfamily: Amaryllidaceae
• Genus: Narcissus

Since a daffodil is of the division Angiosperm, then YES it is a flowering plant. This is verified farther down with the family Amaryllidaceae which have showy, lily-like flowers.
