Botanical name:Narcissus Assorted Varieties
Narcissus sp. is a spring-flowering bulb. They are permanent, increasing form year to year. Leaves are straight and flat or narrow and rushlike. Flowers are composed of right angled petals surrounding the trumpet in the center. Flowers usually face sun. Keep that in mind when selecting planting place.
If you mulch heavily as recommended in the compost and mulch fact sheets you should not need traditional fertilization. Sustainable landscapes fertilize themselves as soil organisms break down and recycle the dropped leaves into nutrients.

Maintain a two to four inch layer of mulch on the soil surface to reduce weeds, infiltrate rain water, and reduce compaction.
Remove irrigation water and fertilizer from areas where you don't want weeds to grow.
