Narcissus.

In the last post, I took a look at hydrangeas at home - though I had also seen some grand specimens at Bodnant Garden too. I was involved in planting narcissus bulbs there, and greatly look forward to seeing them flower in the coming new year.

Narcissus.
(Bulbous perennial.)

Planting: Late summer to autumn.
Flowering: Spring.
Aspect: Sun or partial shade.
Hardiness: Hardy.

Notes: According to some classical writers, the plant sprang from its fallen namesake Narcissus, who succumbed to his own vanity.
