Letter: Is this a Southern KY thing? Diane Wallace writes: Back home in Upstate New York, we call those flowers daffodils. Buttercups look more like the photo attached. --DianeDiane, Thanks for writing. Searching Google for "buttercup" shows you to be 99.6% correct. However, searching for "buttercup daffodil" turns up a large number of stock photographers who think daffodils are buttercups, and a number of plant vendors who sell certain bulbs as buttercups. A quick search of the Columbia Magazine archives puts things at 70% in favor of a colloquial use of buttercup to mean daffodil, 27% for the accepted meaning, and another 22% are certain that it's a pretty good name for a yellow cat.
