Daffodils are a quintessential springtime favorite, brightening up the frigid remnants of winter, and inspiring us with the promise of the year to come. While we all know Narcissus, and surely have someone special that comes to mind whenever we see one, there are so many varieties, colors and types of daffodils that we thought it was imperative we go Deeper in the Garden and thoroughly show off this diverse genus. Join Tim as he scours the arboretum and pulls together his favorite Narcissus (Narcissuses? Narcissi ?), tells you about their history and culture, and highlights the multifaceted beauty of this familiar favorite.
