| tete-a-tete - miniature |
| old fashion jonquil |
| Mount Hood - above and right same flower 3 days apart- another one that fades as it ages, one of the most famous whites. |
| Pistachio - above and right |
| Old variety - at least 65 years old, great bloomer though |
| Minnow - miniature |
| This one and the other old-fashioned one below are both about 65 years old. Both are great bloomers. |
| Ice Follies - above and right - it blooms every year, but the frost usually kills the bloom. This year it was perfect, the bloom fades from butter yellow to soft cream as it ages. |
| Delibes - great bloomer with really large flowers |
| Cassata - one of the first split cups, the center fades to cream as it ages. |
| above and right - Geranium - multi-floral |
| An old double that is at least 75 years old. |
| above -Cheerfulness - another great multi-floral. |
| Left - Thalia - I planted these 17 years ago beside my pet (Sweetie) and they have bloomed every year. They grow in semi-shade and are fairly large, pristine white blooms usually 2 per stem. They also have a very strong fragrance. |
| Not much to say about these beauties except, if you live where you can grow them, grow as many as possible. I have always loved daffodils or buttercups as we call them in the South. I have had as many as 50 different types, but only have about 30 now. They are dependable, bloom early and put on a great show, what more needs to be said. Remember to look for the Split cups and miniatures they add a great deal of interest to a collection. |
