Hollandia Double Daffodil

Narcissus ‘Hollandia’ is in Division 4. It blooms very early in the spring with flowers that have double coronas. The petals are bright yellow with long yellow segments interspersed with the bright orange corona segments. 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.
