    Brent and Becky's comment:

    This is a GREAT new garden daffodil for us with amazing substance and form, which also makes it suitable and lovely enough for the show bench. Pure snow white and long lasting! Mid-Late Spring, 12/15cm, 18" - 24".

    Hope to force this division 2, large cupped beauty this winter.


    Successfully forced, blooming in March.
