Narcissus bulbs are divided into autumn winter flowers and autumn spring flowers. Now the winter bloom planted in autumn is released. Generally, there are daffodils in Zhangzhou, Zhoushan, Chongming and Japan, which are winter flowers.

Narcissus flowers such as trumpet and lilac are spring flowers, which bloom in April, and the parts below the flowers can also grow and be buried in the soil or sand. They will be re-valued in autumn after dormancy, but generally speaking, if the nutrition of many flowers is consumed in the first year, it will not be easy to bloom in the next year. It is suggested that potted plants should not be transported in water.

One legend is that ...

1. It is said that Narcissus is the incarnation of E Huang and Nv Ying, the daughters of Emperor Yao. They are all married to Shun. Their elder sister is a queen and their younger sister is a princess. Their relationship is very good. Shun died in southern China and fell in love with Xiangjiang River. God is merciful to their loved ones, so they turn their souls into daffodils by the river, and they also become the flower gods of daffodils in December.

It is said that there was a kind peasant woman in Yuanshan, Caiban Village, Zhangzhou City, Fujian Province, who helped beggars who were hungry and cold. The beggar used to be a fairy, spraying his food around the house, and then he planted a golden lamp and a silver platform (narcissus).

3. Legend 1998, a kind young couple (Jin Zhan and Yintai) helped a fairy on the mountain. In return, the fairy told them that there was going to be a flood there, and advised them to leave as soon as possible and not to tell others. The couple couldn't bear to leave by themselves, so they informed the whole village that everyone moved to the highest mountain to avoid the flood that day. Because the couple didn't keep a secret, the fairy turned them into two daffodils, the man into a male flower named Jin Zhan, and the woman into a female flower named Yintai. (Nowadays, androgynous flowers are named like this. )

4. Legend has it that one day long ago, when Xian Lingbo in the sky was grinding a treasure mirror by the Milky Way, he happened to see through the clouds that the drought in Longhai South Township (now called Jiuhu Township) was serious, the crops failed and the people were poor. The desolate scene touched the heart of the kind fairy, and she left her precious mirror. The mirror fell to the ground and broke into nine pieces. Nanxiang suddenly became nine lakes, and the water gurgled into the countryside. At that time, Jiuhu Lake was full of flowers and fruits, and the rice was ripe and red. Even Ling Boxian was attracted by the beautiful scenery on earth, and couldn't help floating around the lake. There is a stonemason named Chen Long by the lake, and everyone calls him Brother Long. He was sincere, hardworking and brave, and Ling Bo, the fairy, fell in love with Brother Long. In the lake pond, they tied knots with beads. Fairy Ling Bo is in charge of the water source, and the nine lakes are in good weather every year; Brother Long and the villagers worked hard, and the nine lakes and grains were abundant, making them a fairyland on earth. I don't want to. The happiness and beauty of this world angered the demon dragon, which sprayed poison in its mouth and burned the pastoral village. In order to defend her home, the fairy Ling Bo fought with the pipa. Brother Long swallowed the treasure and became a dragon, fighting against the demon dragon. Finally, the demon dragon failed and fled to the sky, complaining to the heavenly queen. The heavenly queen listened to the slanderers and sent heavenly soldiers to punish the fairy Ling Bo and Brother Long. In a blink of an eye, Nanxiang was dark, and the sky moved round the mountain to suppress the nine lakes. Since then, the water source has been cut off and the spring water has dried up. Brother Long was crushed under the round mountain. In the clouds, Ling Bo, the fairy who was caught back to heaven, looked at the destroyed home and lonely brother Long, held her head high and spat out a clear spring. Reluctantly, she took out her silver hairpin and threw it to the miserable south township. The silver hairpin fell beside the clear spring at the foot of the round mountain and became a graceful and fragrant daffodil. Nowadays, at the end of every year, every household in Jiuhu will put a few pots of daffodils at home to express their gratitude to Brother Long and Fairy Lingbo.

A couple named Yao gave birth to a beautiful and well-behaved daughter. When her daughter grew up, she was taken fancy to by local tyrants and wanted to steal her as a wife. The stubborn girl refused to be humiliated and jumped into the river. God had mercy on her chastity and turned her soul into Narcissus. 6. Narcissus is the birthday flower of Pisces in the zodiac.

Foreign legends

Narcissus in English, narcissism in English is for narcissists. This is a Greek myth that connects the two.

1. Narcissus is a beautiful boy in Greek mythology. His father is a river god and his mother is a fairy. After Narcissus was born, his mother got an Oracle: Narcissus will be the most beautiful man in the world when he grows up; However, he will eventually be depressed because of his infatuation with his appearance. In order to escape the fulfillment of the Oracle, Narcissus' mother specially arranged for her son to grow up in the mountains, away from streams, lakes and the sea, so that Narcissus would never see his face. As his mother wished, Narcissus grew up quietly in the mountains. As predicted by the Oracle, he was handsome and became the most beautiful man in the world. All the girls who have seen him are deeply in love with him. However, Narcissus is arrogant and no woman can get his love. He only likes hunting in the mountains with friends all day, and he despises girls who are single-minded to him. Echo, the mountain god, fell in love with Narcissus at first sight, but she couldn't express her feelings and could only simply repeat other people's voices. Narcissus ignored her infatuation. Narcissus had a heart of stone and broke her heart. She asked Aphrodite, the goddess of love, to punish him and make him suffer. Melancholy, expectation and nothing made her leave her former partner and walk into the forest aimlessly. Here, her sadness is increasing day by day, her face is haggard, she disappears from the mountains, but her gentle voice always lingers in the valley. If you walk in the silent forest, she will respond to your voice. This is the echo of the mountain god. The cold stone heart of Narcissus broke the girl's heart. Nemesis, the goddess of retribution, couldn't stand it anymore and decided to teach him a lesson. One day, Narcissus was hunting in the wild, and it was extremely hot. Soon, he was sweating profusely. Just then, the breeze blew, filled with coolness, and he went with the wind. Strolling through it, the oncoming lake is as clear as a mirror. Narcissus is a stranger to this lake. Narcissus went and sat by the lake, trying to reach out and touch the lake to see what it looked like. Who knows that when he fixed his eyes on the mirror-smooth lake, he could not help but be amazed by a perfect face. Narcissus thought, who is this beautiful woman? It's really beautiful. Staring at it for a while, he found that when he waved to the beauty in the water, the beauty in the water waved to him; When he smiles at the beauty in the water, the beauty in the water smiles back at him; But when he reached out to touch the beauty, the beauty disappeared at once; When he withdrew his hand, a short time later, the beautiful woman appeared again and looked at him affectionately. Of course, Narcissus did not know that it was his reflection that appeared on the lake. He fell in love with his reflection. In order not to like the people who lost the lake, he guarded the lake day and night, and the days passed day by day. Narcissus stayed by the lake without sleeping or eating, and was willing to be the patron saint of beauty in his heart. Sometimes he rests by the lake, and sometimes he wanders on the shore, but his eyes are always inseparable from the reflection in boiling water. He always stares at the lake. Finally, the Oracle came true. Narcissus sat by the lake and died because he was caught by his fans.

The fairies were heartbroken and rushed to the lake to bury Narcissus' body properly. But the lake where Narcissus once sat was empty except for a bunch of strange flowers. It turned out that the god of love pitied Narcissus and turned him into a narcissus, which bloomed where there was water, so that he could always look at his reflection. Those strange little flowers are beautiful and free from vulgarity, proud and lonely. In memory of narcissus, fairies named this flower narcissus, also called narcissus. This is why daffodils always grow at the water's edge. Because of this story, people use narcissism to describe those who like their looks very much and have narcissistic tendencies.

2. Another version said that the swamp fairy took a fancy to him. When she made friends with him, he saw his reflection in the swamp fairy's eyes. He wanted to see it again, so the swamp fairy lied to her that it was her soul and lured her into her own world. Kill him in the swamp.

It is said that Narcissus has a twin sister. They had a good relationship, but his sister died young. Narcissus misses her very much. One day, he saw himself in the pond and thought it was his sister. He stayed there for a long time, refused to leave, and finally died by the pond.

Note: This legend refers to the European narcissus, which is the same species as the Chinese narcissus.
