Poetaz
5 Cultivars Listed
A group of daffodils that are crosses between the Tazetta and Poeticus divisions, made to create a taller, more cold resistant plant than tazettas alone. Includes historic and modern crosses that are happily cold tolerant to zone 5a and nearly always wonderfully fragrant. Most of the Poetaz are also listed in the Tazetta division, but may be obscured. Great garden and vase flowers.

A very successful culitvar- a sport of L'innocence that is gown in great numbers, for forcing and floral work. Because of a Poetaz influence it is hardier than a purebred tazetta. ADS Classic.
8 W-O
A historic poetaz, Early Spendour has ample wide petals and a brilliant over all coloration that sings in the sunlight. Easy to photograph, easy to fall in love with. ADS historic.
8 W-Y
L'innocence is a compact and floriferous tazetta, likely a poetaz, from a time when there was a lot of breeding going on to make tazettas more hardy. Richly colored, its compact size makes if excellent for pot culture or in the rockery where you don't want overly tall tazetta foliage crashing down on the little neighbors. An ADS historic.
8 W-O
Corpulent and colorful, this daffodil is the first lady of the poetaz group. Martha Washington has large flowers, two or three per scape, that bring a shine and a sweet scent to the border. Makes a very flat flower in maturity. ADS Historic.
8 W-W
An abundance of broad, substantial, wavy and white flowers on a scape bring a spirit of opulence to the bed, bench, and bunch. Nickelodeon is a modern poetaz, from Grand Monarque, and from New Zealand too. A remarkable flower that we recommend without a moment's hesitation.
