    Hi. I'd appreciate the i.d. of this (undoubtedly common) flower.

    As always, my thanks -

    - David

    I'm pretty sure that is a daffodil.
    Latin name is 'Narcissus Actea' If thats correct I've grown it, and its beautiful. Smaller than your average display Daffodil, but worth it.

    Narcissus poeticus or a hybrid derived from it.
