The ability of narcissus to bloom with nothing but water and sunlight has led them to become associated with immortality. A special type of narcissus from Fujian Province\, termed “crab claw narcissus” (蟹爪水仙) is a subspecies whose bulblets can be carved early to distort the growth of the leaves in a visually appealing way. \n\n\n\nLearn more about these special plants in our January 2026 Hort Tidbit by Lan Su’s Curator of Horticulture\, Josie Losh. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nParking & Directions\n\n\n\nFree Lan Su Parking\n\n\n\nThere is free first come\, first served parking in our sister lot next to the garden at 424 NW Third Avenue. Additional metered parking and garages are available on surrounding streets.
