Bilbo, named for Bilbo Boggins of the Hobbit, is an older seedling from earlier in the career of the prolific Brian S. Duncan but new to our list in 2026. A pink-cupped daffodil, it is tall for a cyclamineus and can develop wavy character in the blooms. From foundling, but more upright and vigorous.

Double daffodils are not the most ribbon-winning bunch: only the most rounded and orderly need apply. Blossom Lady, originating from New Zealand, is definitely a ribbon candidate: bright; colorful; well-formed; well-rounded. Way back in the family tree is the historic double Mary Copeland. Extremely limited.

You get a lot of rosy acreage in this older American bred large cup. Bold Pink is just that, and a kind of unique coloring for this form of daffy.

An easy going monochromatic yellow coloration with a well-rounded perianth, Broadwalk Beauty is show daffodil that makes it easy to find a consistent and flawless bloom. Hard to find mostly because my fingers type "boardwalk" instead of "broadwalk." Perhaps some reference to the catwalk on the fashion show runway: Broadwalk Beauty is very tall like Jerry Hall. Very small stock.

A reverse bi-color with soft even coloration and nearly oval, overlapping petals. Caribbean Snow is very good on the show bench : we had no problem getting perfect blooms , consistently. Also good in bed : Castle Acre is an offspring.

There is a lot to appreciate about Castle Howard : velvety substance, the linen white color, the sheer size and architecture of the bloom. Howie can be a handful to husband but in the end insanely rewarding. An imposing presence when fully unfurled on the bench.

If you had a flat face with a broad pink rim perhaps your mother would have named you Dena too. Dena the Daff is so popular we can't keep her in stock. With a face like that we would be just as popular too. From Brian Duncan.

A cup so broad, pink, and unbroken that it eclipses the perianth behind it, Diversity is a poster child for showy split cupped daffodils. A good competitor on the bench, as our stocks increase I expect diversity to attract the attention of cut flower growers. Parent to the split cup Cosine.
