@Cem9165 , if I recall correctly Ms. Backhouse was the 1st daffodil to break the color barrier, considered to be the 1st 'pink' daffodil. 'Pink', of course, covers about any color other than yellow and white...until more modern times. Here's some growers description - 'This is the oldest of the pink daffodils and named by the breeder after his wife. It has ivory white petals and a creamy rose trumpet that ages to a beautiful glowing pink.'
@Cinta, thanks; Gipsy just pervades a room with sweet fragrance.
Nothing that's been done can ever be changed.
