Daffodils from Gulmarg (12/06/2011 NSJ 03):
Wild daffodils from Gulmarg hills, Kashmir.

I think this is Narcissus tazetta L. Family: Amaryllidaceae.

Narcissus tazetta has corona less than 1/3 the tepals and flowers 4 or more together
This is Narcissus incomparabilis Mill, characterised by flowers single on scape, coronoa nearly half as long as tepals.
