Daffodils are some of my favorite flowers they belong in the genus narcissus. 
i find them okay but i dont think ive seen one in real life. what else can you tell me about thm?
The exact origin of the name is unknown but some credit it to the myth of the boy that fell in love with his own reflection.  
lol what the heck. are daffodils popular?
Well that story is also where we get the term narcissism from. The whole being in love with one's self. Im sure naming the genus that was suposssed to imply their beauty.
i see i see. where did daffodils come from?
They seem to have come from the Iberian peninsula and some adjacent European areas as well.
ohhh interesting. what occassion do people usually use daffodils?
I'm unsure of that information. However I can tell you they have 6  petal-like tepals surmounted by a cup-shaped corona.
