Wild Daffodil

Description:

These guys are popping up all over Independence lately, and I'm pretty happy with that. Apparently they take five to seven years to produce a flowering plant after the seed germinates, so these fellows have been waiting for a while.

Habitat:

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.
