On Sabbatical - not listed this year

Albatross (Pre-1891) - a vigorous and showy old small cup. Takes calm and patience to differentiate this bloom from White Lady, Seagull, Stella. Albatross has more orange in the cup that the others.

A stunning all white large cup. Daughter of the widely grown Misty Glen.

Arkle is a large sophisticate golden trumpet that survives in the commercial trade. Can show very well on the bench. An ADS classic.

Today there are a few terrific miniature jonquillas that are floriferous, notably Baby Boomer and Kokopellii. But for 30 years Baby Moon had little competition. It has been a go-to favorite of knowledgeable gardeners for a long time. Will make a great show wherever you think to use it. Jonquilla x jonquilla cross. Pollen and Pod fertile.

Badbury Rings. Perfectly rounded yellow perianth and cup with a bright orange-red band on the rim. Consistently shows well. Tall. Scented. Seed and pollen fertile.

Bantam is a mid 20th century large cup that continues to command interest. Intermediates struggle for attention in the landscape trade but Bantam is well behaved and right-sized in a mixed border or cottage garden bed. She can be a bit of a nodder so some bright sunlight will lift her face up. On the bench she does well. Bright and sharp with crenulation in the cup. Her perianth can be well-rounded. Bantam is seed and pollen fertile and has some remarkable offspring including Independence Day and Scarlet Tanager.

An older and bright small-cup, Narcissus Bath's Flame was once widely grown as a cut flower.

Beryl is the oldest cyclamineus cultivar we can think of. A spirited and free centenarian, she is a dwarf with compact blooms but not classified as a miniature. Beryl is present at almost every daffodil show - when her petals sweep back in full cyclamineus fashion she is as breathtaking as a meteor shower. Pollen and seed are fertile. She has long served as a seed parent.

Carlos loves daffodils and it shows in this recent introduction. Big Love is big in all the places a trumpet daffodil ought to be big. Substantial and showy. Frilly cup.

Birthday Girl is a older Brian Duncan seedling who is a nearly all-white with a neat cylindrical corona. Just a blush of green at the base. Like the rest of us she celebrates her fabulousness annually. Pollen fertile.

Blisland is a Ron Scamp bred, modern, true poeticus. Three and half inch blooms with the green yellow red transition in the corona that poeticus crazy people are looking for. Late, smells sweet. Lovely in the garden. Contender on the bench.

Brooke Ager creates a lot of love and excitement wherever she goes. An intermediate, a dwarf and a large cup, she stands out with a substantial and rich pink cup. There is some echo of the cup color into the petals. Brings a bright and attractive contrast to the rockery and close up beds. The rich colored cup along with a trim rounded perianth and stylish anthers makes her a show bench natural.

Brunswick is an older, beefy, white and yellow large cupped daffodil. ADS historic.

Bulbocodium Early Bird is a selection of a yellow species bulbocodium.

Bulbocodiums, sometimes called "Hoop Petticoats", occur as a species from the Iberian Peninsula through North Africa. Nivalis is a species from the Atlas mountains, small and bright. Bulbocodium grow freely (considered feral) in the south, but may struggle to return in zones below 6B. Narcissus bulbocodium;ssp.bulbocodium nivalis. (syn. N. jeanmonodii, N. juressianus, N. subnivalis).

Camellia (Pre-1930)

Cameo Marie - A fiery white and yellow-yellow-orange Kiwi-bred small cup. Broad ovate white petals. Four inch blooms. A substantial flower that is a natural for the show bench. Rare.

Canaliculatus - An important Tazetta that is grown commercially in large numbers. A historic, an ADS Classic and an ADS miniature. On commercial acreage lists in Holland it is categorized as a species. Pollen and Pod fertile. We maintain a small stock that is hand harvested and graded apart from the large commercial growers. Floriferous, bright and fragrant.

Tall and bright Carbineer is a beacon and a monument in the spring garden. A historic and strong yellow-orange Large cup. A descendent of Gulliver, Carbineer is pollen and seed fertile and has been used widely in breeding over the last century. Grows well in the deep south.

Charity May (Pre-1948)

Chinita (Pre-1922)

Unlike most jonquillas , Cora is always single headed, uncomplicated and remarkably coy. An ADS historic that we always come back to.

A very large all-white trumpet, with blooms up to five inches across. Cotehele is a modern Irish cultivar. Makes an impressive show in the border. Cotehele is named for the estate in Cornwall, England that has a large old daffodil collection along with estate gardens and orchards.

Cotinga is a much loved Grant Mitsch pink cyclamineus. Perfect in form, color and temperament it is a truly great daffodil. A strong grower and prolific Cotinga is stunning in the garden. Cotinga has almost entirely disappeared from the commercial trade over the last few years. Becoming rare. 10-12 inches.

A truly beautiful flower with an iron constitution, Croesus is an old variety that naturalizes freely. Ever changing colors lighten with maturity. Historic, a centenarian. I am sure that the breeder thought he would be as rich as Croseus when people saw his daffodil.
