And for anyone stupid out there who doesn't know already, a daffodil is a Narcissus flower.

Narcissus not a daff

Narcissus cyclamineus, which is the most commonly known Daffodil is the one I have seen the most in art work that relates to Greek Mythology.
Personally, I love the double scented daffodil which is known as Jonquil (Narcissus Jonquilla) and I like to relate that one to Narcissus the dude.

Surely Narcissus turned into a Narcissus flower, not a daffodil?

He turned into a narcissus (which is of the same genus as daffodil)
That is why it is called a narcissus.

I would think a white one, since his love for himself was so pure (to his way of thinking, anyway).
