Bobbysoxer -- such a funny orange face on this Alec Gray jonquilla. Floriferous, friendly, fun. Diminutive but stands tall in the close-up garden bed and rockery. Old, but not a miniature nor a historic

Anyone referring to a flower named 'Buttercup' elicits all kinds of confusion. Are they referencing a Ranunculus, using a generic term for jonquils that bloom freely in the South, increasingly as an alias for Tête-à-Tête? One of the several daffodils registered under that name? We offer the historic Rev. Engleheart jonquilla 'Buttercup', a strong grower with large flowers more reminiscent of a historic small cup. Rare. Brings intense happiness to the gardener. Smells good.

A bright, contrasty and colorful jonquil, Chappie is a miniature a that is welcome in most any rock and closeup garden bed. The rounded light yellow perianth matures to near white, making her even more alluring. Late 20th century. Can work the bench.

A miniature, rich yellow jonquil, Curlylocks is bright and ruffly. One to three one inch pugnacious blooms on a scape. US bred. Rare.

Dainty Miss is a siren's song in the garden. An all-white jonquil she goes it alone, only one two-inch perfectly appointed, dainty-cupped flower per stem please. Wanting a chorus of Dainty Miss for your garden is only natural. Compelling. Benchable. Miss Dainty is an ADS Classic, Wister Award winner, an achingly beautiful mid century spell of Grant Mitsch witchcraft.

The jonquilla Desert Bells makes two or four tidy and flattened white flowers per scape. Cup mellows to a light lemon. A late blooming dwarf that is at ease in the rock garden, in the pot or on the bench. Show winner. By Grant Mitsch.

Fernandesii Var. Cordubiensis is species jonquilla from Cordoba, Spain. Similar to the other fernandesii in habit but the cup is frillier and markedly split. Born to bloom. Born to breed. ADS Miniature.

Why does Flowmay drive us to such devotion? She is a tiny, miniature jonquilla, all white with an impossibly delicate pink rim on the cup. So improbable a heroine, so hopeful in a world of naysaying giants. Alec Gray named this for the missus. Tiny and rare. Powerful perfume.

Golden Perfection (Pre-1925)

A clump of Lanarth in your garden makes a friendly show, calling out from its towering height to anyone who passes by. A very old cultivar Lanarth is an amber and orange Jonquilla. Florifierous and sweetly scented. A catch-up call from an old friend. We think it a stunning garden flower. Excellent in the South.

Watrous, a founder of the American Daffodil Society. She worked for years breeding miniatures.
