Neutral	Joan	On Apr 16, 2009, Joan from Belfield, ND (Zone 4a) wrote: Editor's Note Some resources list Narcissus as poisonous if ingested. Ingesting the bulbs can cause poisoning in humans and has also poisoned some cattle. Family pets could be at risk if they ingest quantities of this plant. Serious cases of poisoning are rare. Humans have been poisoned only when the bulbs were mistaken for onions. Symptoms include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea. May be fatal if large quantities are consumed. The plant also contains allergens in the above ground plant parts, which cause dermatitis in sensitive humans. We tend to err on the side of caution in PlantFiles, and the danger notation in the details above is to warn gardeners, parents, and pet owners to look further for more information.
Positive	philomel	On Apr 14, 2003, philomel from Termes d'Armagnac France (Zone 8a) wrote: This is a charming small Narcissus. It's name is very apt as the flowers are crowded at the top of their stalks, giving a jumbled effect. Alec Gray who raised it in 1952 relates that after World War 2 an unusual year occurred when seed was set on many bulbs which normally are completely sterile. He noticed that just one seed capsule had developed on a stem of 'Cyclataz' and when gathered, contained three seeds. These ultimately developed into three excellent bulbs - 'Jumblie', 'Quince' and 'Tete a Tete' Some seed pod!
