Daffodils

Daffodil seeds can be purchased at home and hardware stores like Home Depot and Lowes. Online sellers like Plant World Seeds, Burpee and Park Seed are also great places to find bulbs and seeds for flowers.

Many plants including tulips have developed special methods to survive the extreme climatic conditions by remaining dormant during the harsh winter and bloom during the spring and summer months. The tulips have underground storage organs called bulbs to survive the long months of winter.

Daffodils grow from bulbs. Daffodils are spring blooming flowers. They will bloom early in the season, around the same time that tulips bloom.

Yes, daffodils do grow in Australia. They are a popular garden flower. Also the Australian Cancer Society chose them as the symbol of hope for Daffodil Day which helps support cancer patients and research in the local communities. Daffodils have a blooming time from June until October in Australia.

The exact numbers depend on which university library and the age of the information you access, but generally there are between 40 and 200 different daffodil species and over 25,000 registered cultivars divided among the 13 divisions in the daffodil classification system.

Fragrance is a subjective thing. What you pick up I may never even notice, or I may think it smells horrible. With so many varieties of daffodils, there is a wide range of fragrances from the "punch you in the face" perfume of the Paperwhite to no scent at all. You might say that daffodils generally have the smell of "spring", and if you grew up with daffodils in a home garden, you have an idea of what that means. The fragrance of a carnation is more of a cool summer scent, in my opinion. But one better than the other? Only your nose can tell you for sure.

According to legend, St. David (the patron saint of Wales) was getting ready for a battle that took place in a leek field. He told his Britons to wear a leek in their caps to reduce casualties from "friendly fire", since their enemy, the Saxons, looked like their brothers. This produced a defining victory for the Britons. Today, on March 1st, Welsh people wear the leeks in remembrance. Some will wear the daffodil, since the common word for leek and daffodil is the same. Daffodil has become the National Flower of Wales.

The genus name for the daffodil is Narcissus. There are many different species of the flower, which is in the Amaryllidaceae (flowering, perennial bulb) family.

Daffodils, violets and poppies all belong to the phylum Angiospermae, also known as Magnoliophyta. Angioserms represent all of the flowering plants. The next step down in classification (taxonomy) shows the daffodil to be a moncot and the violets and poppies are dicots, so they can't all be grouped together here.

No Hamsters can eat Daffodils :D

Yes, daffodils grow in Europe.

The Caribbean is usually too hot for Tulips to thrive as they would in cooler climates. It is possible to grow Tulips there in a controlled, partially artificial environment.

Sheep tend to not eat daffodils. Sheep don't eat plants of sedge family (Cyperaceae), Rush family (Juncaceae), Arrow-grass family (Juncaginaceae) and Rannoch-rush family (Scheuchzeriaceae), because they know, that they don't stomach these plants.

Daffodils don't have fruit, they are just a everyday rare flower.

Cut the flowers (and a portion of the stem so the plants look better) right after the flowers have died. You don't want them wasting their energy producing seeds when they should be storing food in their bulbs for next year's growth. Let those leaves produce that storage food until they've turned yellow and began to shrivel. A slight tug will then easily remove the plant from the bulb in the ground.
