Thanks Josh, that is what it looks like. With the reddish brown covering of the buds. Looks like I will have to watch it, as it could easily become a weed here in our mild climate. In fact I may not keep it, as it tends to flop, and as such I would be inclined to plant it amongst other tallish plants to support it, but not if it has weed like properties. http://flickr.com/photos/plantlover/… And yes, Mary Sue, it is not a daffodil. I was also taking photos of some mini daffodils, hence the name with the Sparaxis photo. I couldn't see how to get rid of the wrong name once it was on Flickr. Thank you all for your replies.
