'Fls often 2 per stem; petals reflexed, sulfur colored. This daffodil is a N. x taitii selection, formerly N. x johnstonii; Selection was made by Peter Barr (1888) from wild-collected material from Spain. Name cannot be applied with certainty to any one of several clones of N. x taitii (formerly known as N. x johnstonii). - comment from DaffSeek (10-7-13)
The International Daffodil Register & Classified List notes 'name that cannot now be applied with any certainty to any one of several clones of {N.x johnstonii}'. www.rhs.org.uk

The International Daffodil Register & Classified List has 3 entries for this name. The other two are both Division 2, one of which is a syn. of 'Portland'. The other one is a white petalled red cupped daffodil bred by J.L. Richardson from Ireland and registered in 1969 (an ADS Classic).

Swept back petals make it appear as if it is in front of a fan. Excellent in pots and a good candidate for forcing as it is very early and of dwarf stature.

'Angelina' always attracts attention in the garden. No matter what time of year it is, the colors always stand out. It's an easy plant to root and spreads nicely, but it's also easy to remove because of its shallow root system. Looks nice planted under dark-leaved companion plants.

Used twice as seed parent in daffodil programs; specifics can be obtained at DaffSeek site - http://daffseek.org/query/Desc...
Appears to be a favorable daffodil.

An old cultivar (pre 1906) that's registered in the International Daffodil Register & Classified List of the RHS. Info provided therefrom is scanty at best. There's a cryptic entry under the Division designation, says 'Division 2 or 3 (b or c)' ...‘The Royal Horticultural Society Horticultural Database’, available at www.rhs.org.uk
Nymph was used as a seed parent to produce Wynne in 1970.

Good cultivar to force over winter. May subsequently be translocated to garden to bloom in following years.

Sibling to 'Sabrosa'.

An all white award winning miniature daffodil w/ narrow swept back petals and a relatively long, slender trumpet. Would make an excellent subject for forcing. Used in breeding programs, 4 times as seed parent, 4 times as pollen parent. A listing of descendants available here - http://daffseek.org/query/Desc...

Exhibits 'variation', color may vary as bloom attains full maturity.

I just purchased a few of these. Let's see if they survive my zone 5 winter.
