Look at it in reverse. Daffodils produce seed that grows into a bulb that produces more seed. Bulbs are simply an underground storehouse for future flowers, perennials are a ground level storehouse, while trees are an above ground storehouse. Bulbs have evolved to remain below ground,avoiding predators, frost, and hot sun; just what is needed for a Spring flowering bulb.
