Poet's Narcissus is distinctive in its solitary, bright white flowers with a short yellow-orange corona forming a mouth. N. tazetta is similar but has multiple flowers per stem, per Vascular Plants of North Carolina.
Naturalized daffodils are often undercollected and misidentified by field botanists. When making specimens of Narcissus, the collector should note number of flowers per scape (in the population), fragrance, tepal/corona color, and whether leaves are glaucous, green, flat, grooved, or round.
