‘Orange Comet’ 6 W-YYO As a Division 6 (Cyclamineus) daffodil, this has

a single flower per stem, strongly reflexed petals, a down-facing pose,

and a short neck. It is an early-midseason bloomer bred and introduced

by Brent and Becky Heath in 2014 but not yet registered.

‘Beautiful Eyes’ 7 Y-O This is a Division 7 (Jonquilla and

Apodanthus) daffodil. Division 7 daffodils are the true jonquils. They

commonly have one to five florets per stem and are fragrant.

‘Beautiful Eyes’ blooms in mid-season and was registered by Brent

Heath in 2004.

‘Geranium’ 8 W-O This is a familiar Division 8 daffodil found in

many old gardens. Division 8 (Tazetta) daffodils usually have three

to twenty florets on a stout stem and are very fragrant. ‘Geranium’

has won several awards as a good garden daffodil. It was hybridized

by J. B. van der Schoot of the Netherlands and registered before

1930. Because it was registered before 1940, it is classified by the

American Daffodil Society as an Historic daffodil.

‘Actaea’ 9 W-YYR Division 9 daffodils (Poeticus) and may are called

“poets” because they are similar to the species daffodils Narcissus

poeticus. They usually have a single flower per stem with pure white

petals and a very small, disc-shaped cup. Most have a fine red rim at

the edge of the cup. Many are late bloomers, but ‘Ornatus’ may

bloom mid-season before most poets. Hybridized by G. Lubbe and

Son of the Netherlands, it was registered before 1919 so is an

Historic daffodil.

‘Smiling Twin’ 11a W-Y Division 11 (Split-Corona) daffodils have cups that are divided into sections, usually 6 sections and may have one or more florets per stem. ‘Smiling Twin’ was hybridized by Brent Heath and registered in 2003. As the name suggests, it usually has two florets per stem. It blooms mid-season to late.

single bloom per stem and a cup (trumpet) longer than the petal

length. They may be any overall size from very large to miniature.

‘Growers Pride’ is small enough (less than 80mm) to qualify for the

special class of Intermediates. Thus, it can be exhibited as a regular

standard daffodil or in its special Intermediate class. It was

hybridized by Langeveld & Sons of the Netherlands and registered in

2015. It blooms in early to mid-season.

‘Snowboard’ 2 W-GWW Division 2 (Large-cupped) Division 2 has

single flowers with the cup more than 1/3 but less than equal to the

of the Netherlands and registered in 2013. It blooms mid-season.

‘Barrett Browning’ 3 WWY-O Division 3 (Small-cupped) Division 3 has a single flower per stem with a cup not more than 1/3 the length of the petals. J.W.A. Lefeber of the Netherlands is the hybridizer. It was registered in 1945, making it a Classic daffodil (those registered from 1940-1969). It blooms early to med-season.

‘Bridal Crown’ 4 W-Y Division 4 (Double) Division 4 daffodils may have one or more flowers per stem with doubling of the petals (perianth segments) or cup or both. ‘Bridal Crown’ was hybridized by J. Schoori of the Netherlands and registered in 1949, making it another Classic daffodil. It blooms in mid-season. It is strongly scented.

‘Sunlight Sensation’ 5 Y-Y Division 5 daffodils (Triandrus) usually have two or more pendant flowers per stem and petals that are reflexed back from the cup. The division is called Triandrus because the flowers look similar, and are often genetically related, to the wild species daffodil ‘Narcissus triandrus’. This one is bred by Karel van der Veek of the Netherlands and registered by Brent & Becky’s Bulbs in 2016. It is sweetly scented. It blooms in mid-season.
