Daffodils (Narcissus) are native to parts of Europe, North Africa, and Asia, with a particular concentration in the Mediterranean region. The flower has been cultivated for thousands of years and has a rich history, often appearing in art, mythology, and literature. The ancient Romans used them for medicinal purposes, believing their sap had healing properties. In Greek mythology, they are famously linked to the story of Narcissus, a beautiful youth who became so enchanted by his own reflection that he wasted away, and a daffodil bloomed in his place. Over time, they have spread across the globe, becoming a cherished symbol of renewal and new beginnings.
