The daffodil is one of spring's most beloved flowers, celebrated across cultures as a symbol of rebirth and new beginnings. Native to Mediterranean regions and western Europe, daffodils were immortalized in literature and art, most famously in William Wordsworth's poem about dancing alongside a host of golden daffodils beside a lake. These resilient bulbs bloom reliably each year, their cheerful yellow trumpets often among the first flowers to emerge as winter fades, making them a natural emblem of hope and renewal in gardens worldwide.
