CLASSIFICATION OF NARCISSUS 
The term “Narcissus” is the Latin or 
botanical name for this entire group and 
is the proper one to use in referring to the

the classification of narcissus and we 
present that classification herewith.

the perianth segments. Pure whites, 
and creams; pure yellow, and bicolors.
