Pretty much everything in the Amaryllis Family (Amaryllidaceae) are toxic to some extent, including Narcissus, Lycoris, Sternbergia, Hippeastrum, Zephyranthes, Habranthus, etc., so most creatures will not like them. Tulipa are on the other hand tasty to most varmints, and I'm not sure about Hyacinthus, Lilium, and other Liliaceae. Iridaceae, especully Crocus, seem to be tasty enougth, too. Jim S.
