    If this is suppose to be a daffodil that is golden yellow with a bright orange trumpet, then is it suppose to age to a bright orange trumpet or what?!

    The fall of 2015 I got 5 bulbs from Brent & Becky's and was looking forward to seeing the flowers bloom a bright orange (or a brilliant orange color) trumpet with the golden yellow, but I haven't seen it yet. The first bloom was 3/17 and I'm still looking and waiting for it. Today (3/21), I just looked at the Classic Garden daffodils in my garden, took pics and they still look the same coloring, as on 3/17. I'd read that it is suppose to more sun proof than most bicolors also.

    I like the daffodils, but I got them because of the description(s) I read, which was first in the fall of 2014 at John Scheepers and then at Brent & Becky's in 2015.

    Classic Garden is indeed a classic for the garden. Brent and Becky's Bulbs describe it thusly - 'Golden yellow with a bright orange trumpet, this beauty has thick substance and strong stems which keep its head high and make it an ideal cut flower! A seedling of N.'Glen Clova', this is a winner in the garden and on the show bench!'

    A gorgeous bi-color of orange and yellow. The trumpet is supposed to be more sunproof than most. Wake up your spring garden with this beauty.
