Narcissus is a genus of mainly hardy, mostly spring-flowering, bulbous perennials in the Amaryllidaceae family. Various common names including daffodil, narcissus, and jonquil are used to describe all or some of the genus. They are native to meadows and woods in Europe, North Africa, and West Asia, with a center of distribution in the Western Mediterranean. The number of distinct species varies widely depending on how they are classified, with the disparity due to similarity between species and hybridization between species. The number of defined species has ranged widely depending on the authority. 

Species and hybrids are widely used in gardens and landscapes. Narcissus species are winter-growing and summer-dormant bulbs with most species flowering from late winter to spring. Narcissus are popular as ornamental plants for gardens and as cut flowers, providing colour from the end of winter to the beginning of summer in temperate regions.

Narcissus pseudonarcissus commonly known as Wild Daffodil or Lent Lily is a perennial flowering plant. The species is native to Western Europe from Spain and Portugal east to Germany and north to England and Wales. It is commonly grown in gardens and populations have become established in the Balkans, Australia, New Zealand, the Caucasus, Madeira, British Columbia, Ontario, Newfoundland, Oregon, Washington State, much of eastern United States, and the Falkland Islands. Wild plants grow in woods, grassland and on rocky ground. In Britain native populations have decreased substantially since the 19th century due to intensification of agriculture, clearance of woodland and uprooting of the bulbs for use in gardens. In Germany it was a subject of a national awareness campaign for the protection of wildflowers in 1981. The daffodil is the national flower of Wales, and also the County flower of Gloucestershire. This species has pale yellow flowers, with a darker central trumpet. The long, narrow leaves are slightly greyish in colour and rise from the base of the stem. The plant typically grows from a bulb, however, the plants also produces seeds, which when germinated, takes five to seven years to produce a flowering plant. Sexual (seed) reproduction mixes the traits of both parent flowers, producing new varieties.
