Stainless Large-cupped Daffodil

Narcissus ‘Stainless’ is in Division 2, the large cupped narcissus. It blooms in mid to late spring with 3¾ inch white flowers. The petals are very broad, giving the flower a roundish appearance. The corona is a broad and shallow with a bowl shape. 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.
