Dear friends

After feedback from Mr. Anzar from Kashmir University, I come to realize that this plant may not be true N.poeticus, which has corona smaller in length and with red narrow margin along the rim. I feel my plant is Narcissus 'Jack Snipe'.

Please comment.

I request Mr. Anzar to upload true N. poeticus.

Great pics. I imagine why such a name, Narcissus. It means "NUMB" !! So basically the complete name would mean " NUMBNESS OF POETS" :))

Thank you Mr. Garg.

Still a mystery, because in N. x medioluteus (Syn: N. biflorus) the flowers mostly appear in pairs on the scape. I have nearly 12 pictures of the plant, all are with single flower.

But images at POWO and GBIF do not show it in so many images.
