Daffodils featured on ‘Year of the Tiger’ stamp

To celebrate today’s dawn of the Chinese New Year — the Year of the Tiger — the U.S. Postal Service has issued a stamp featuring five blooming daffodils.

Daffodils — or Narcissus as they are more properly known around the world — play a big role in Chinese culture, as well. To find out more (and see a tea set made from daffodil bulbs), read Stamp Out Narcissus at the Human Flower Project website.
