From 1966, Pueblo is a Grant Mitsch jonquil and an ADS classic. LIke most of Mitsch jonquils it is late because at that time he had only a late strain of species jonquilla to work with as a pollen parent.

Somehow I have only one photo of an immature bloom of Pueblo in the library . A good vase filler.

Not to be confused with the 6 W-Y cyclamineus ´†Jack Snipe†ª, who is nice , but by comparison is lacking in charisma.
