Kabby, your spring show is beautiful! Check the miniature section of Brent and Becky's offerings- I recall a little white double daffodil that looked like your noid- its adorable!
Bet, so sorry to hear of the poor return of your bulbs. We had a very wet summer last year and I've noticed among several daffs planted in 2014 there were some no shows. The only ones completely lost were some of the white heirlooms from Old House gardens- of course, since they were the most expensive
Dirt said it well- some bulbs tolerate more moisture during dormancy than others. The surprising thing is that daffs are typically among the most tolerant, but that depends on the variety somewhat too. Like Dirt, I also have mature tree roots that seem to usurp excess water during times I irrigate.
