Is the Daffodil plant part of the lily family?

No it isn't but it is commonly known as the Lenten Lily because it has a lily like trumpet flower and it flowers around Lent.

Is the Daffodil plant part of the lily family?
The English daffodl is a member of the Narssus family of flowers - I think.

The trouble is that daffodils are closely related to plants that are closely related to others
Reply:A simple good question, so i star it.
Reply:I don't care but I love them, used to have a garden full of daffodils and poppies. Daffodils are the national flower of Wales and are worn on the lapel on 1st March, the beginning of the Celtic New Year.
Reply:no
Reply:YES!! Kinda...LOL read on...Among the Lilies there is enough variation to justify breaking the family apart into smaller families of more closely related plants. For instance, daffodils are so different from the more typical lilies described here that they really deserve a family of their own. The trouble is that daffodils are closely related to plants that are closely related to other plants that are closely related to more typical Lilies. So where do you draw the line between one family and the other? In the effort to clearly distinguish these groups, botanists have proposed to break the Lily family up into as many as 70 distinct families, but to no avail. Recent genetic studies are helping to clear up the confusion, and will eventually require a complete rewrite of the family. In the interim, I rely on the historical subfamilies that work adequately to group the Lilies into their approximate relationships
Reply:No. Daffodils are genus Narcisus. Lillies are genus Lilium.
Reply:Nope!
Reply:yeah . i m an indian .u r frm wich plce
Reply:Nope, they are both in a different class, order, family, and genus. They're both in the same kingdom (i.e., PLANTS) and division (i.e., FLOWERS) but that's it.





They do look similar, though, so good question.
Reply:no its part of the onion family you can %26amp; l have eaten them
Reply:no they have a family of their own.
