Narcissus daffodil

The image features a flower from the Narcissus genus, commonly known as a daffodil or narcissus. Specifically, this specimen appears to be a large-cupped variety characterized by creamy white petals (perianth) and a distinctive orange-colored central cup (corona). Varieties with this specific color combination include 'Professor Einstein', 'Actaea' (Poet's Daffodil), or 'Geranium'.

Historically, the genus Narcissus was formally described by Carl Linnaeus in 1753 and is native to meadows and woods in Europe, North Africa, and the Mediterranean. Today, they are widely naturalized throughout the world and are a staple of spring gardens. Most commercial bulbs are produced in the Netherlands and the United Kingdom, which are the leading global exporters of flowering bulbs. As a biological entity found in nature, it is not a manufactured consumer product under a single owner, though specific cultivars are developed by various horticultural companies.
