The French Daffodil
The French Daffodil (Narċis in Maltese) is a perennial type of plant, with flowers that bloom from November to March.
It is found mostly in uncultivated areas, valleys and less frequently in garigue habitats.
It is a monocot type of plant, that grows from underground bulbs. From the middle of its leaves, grows a tall flowering stalk carrying between 3 and 12 flowers.
It is a protected species because unfortunately, it used to be collected (for sale) in large numbers!
