Daffodil is part of our Language of Flowers collection illustrating the symbolism and sentiment behind particular plants. Adorned with a floriferous scribble on the front, the meaning of each bloom is elegantly and concisely explained on the reverse.

Thought to originate from the Old English word ‘affodyle’ meaning ‘that which comes early’, Daffodils are the birth flower of March, and are traditionally given on a 10th wedding anniversary. Its botanical name Narcissus derives from the Greek ‘narke’, meaning numbness or torpor, pertaining to its narcotic properties. Symbolising rebirth and new beginnings, Daffodils herald the arrival of Spring. The national symbol of Wales, in China, daffodils represent good fortune and prosperity, whilst in Japan, they express joy and mirth. In France, they are symbols of hope, and in the Middle East, they were believed to be an aphrodisiac.

All Scribble & Daub cards are traditionally letterpress-printed from original dip pen and ink drawings and then individually hand-painted with Andy Warhol’s favourite inks on luxurious Italian deckle-edged cards.

8.5 x 13 cm, blank inside, with matching envelope.

Each card comes individually packed in a biodegradable cello.
