Poet Hellenicus N. poeticus var. hellenicus, section Narcissus If you hear an ancient voice in your garden it will likely emanate from the wizened face of a poeticus Narcissus. Yes, named after the ancient poets: Homer; who spoke and sang the virtues of the species . Being a poet in the Bronze age meant that you were essentially a performer of epics that took days to recite, the audience depended on the poet because they couldn't read. This flower returns for us every spring to retell the story. Primordial, spellbinding, and fragrant.
