The origin of ranunculus, hyacinth and daffodil
Ranunculus originally comes all the way from Central Asia. It traveled through many exotic places before arriving in Europe, where it was given its official name. The hyacinth arrived in Europe in around 1560 from Turkey, Syria and Lebanon. Daffodils grow wild in meadows, forests and rocky places in Western Europe.
