Punchline Jonquil
Narcissus ‘Punchline’ is in Division 7. It blooms in mid to late spring with 2 – 3 flowers on each stem. The flowers are 3 inches wide and ivory buff colored. The corona is buff yellow with a pink band at the rim. 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.
