Split-Cupped Daffodils
13 Cultivars Listed
11a Y-O
It's hard to fill a truck selling Boslowick, he is so perfect, so broad faced and calming that you only need to one bloom to make your day. But please, take two bulbs, or more ! A very well ordered and well behaved split cup, with a profound color. A good grower for us, a perfect thing like most things Ron Scamp. See also Jabberwocky. Limited availability.
11a W-P
From Trigonometry and Diversity, Cosine is a Brian Duncan Split cup with a broad, and only slightly interrupted, coral-colored corona. Limited quantities.
11a Y-O
This remarkable and newly registered seedling from Mr Blom reliably throws two scapes: the primary flower is a very balanced and well formed split cup, the secondary bloom a large cup. Cup and Saucer is a unique dwarf with lovely fruit-sweet color. Sunproof. Show judges may need to be on the watch for this one.
11a W-P
Perfectly hexagonal white and peach broad split cup will put a hex on your garden bed. Kind of like dancing the tarantella, but for daffodils. Recent van der Veek introduction.
11a W-YPP
Kick up your heels for a recent and reliably pink colored split cup from Carlos van der Veek. Split cups tend to bloom early and hold well, take them for a spin in the vase. For all of his "Dance"named cultivars, I have yet to see Carlos on the dance floor.
11a W-PPW
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.
11a W-YPP
If this is what histrionic behavior in a flower looks like then bring it on. Remarkable color and form in Brian Duncan's split-cupped Drama Queen. We have only small numbers of her to offer at this time.
11b W-P/W
Everyone wants a date with Jodi when they see her, few will get her number. If she looks delicate and retiring it is because she is. A delicate pink split cup from the Cupid's arrow of Brian Duncan. We have just a few to offer again this year. Limit two per order please.
11a W-YYO
When some one asks you to dance, you should always say yes. Especially if it is someone with a colorful and contrasty split-cupped face. With a face like that, oh the stories they can tell. Vigorous white and orange grower from van der Veek.
11a W-P
Pucker up for this unusual split cup. White with a wild and wavy lobed pink corona. Recent introduction from Carlos van der Veek.
11a Y-R
Unlike many split cups Maria Pia's corona face is round, flat, and unfrilly. The overall design of Maria is enough to take a ribbon. If you can coax that deep red face out of her you will certainly take the class.
11 a W-P
One of the first fancy daffodils to emerge for us in the early spring is the crowd pleaser Mary Gay Lierette, who makes an enthralling color change from lemon chiffon to pink in the ruffly spliit cup. Mary , as an early riser , has a bit of a delicate staure and neck, but nobody cares once they see her fresh face. Sweet smelling.
11a Y-Y
Alec Gray-bred daffodils dominate the commercial trade by sheer volume grown. Scores of acres of his highly successful, miniature tazetta Minnow are grown each year, mainly for pot culture. Minnowlet is an unexpected offspring of Minnow, being a small and neat monochromatic split cup. Two and a half inch flowers with concise Star of David petals, well designed collar.
