gemini_sage said:Rita, I tried a mix from Van Engelen once, and didn't really care for it. The blend wasn't balanced, and many were novelty types. I have heard that mixtures are usually seedlings that don't make the cut for introduction, and my experience makes me think that is true. But Beersheeba is such an elegant beauty, and OHG says it multiplies well- fingers crossed! Another quality I love about it is that it opens solid ivory-white, no waiting for the yellow cup to mature to white.


Yes, I was underwhelmed and dissapointed in that mix. But not such a terrible thing in the scheme of things because there are lots of other daffs in the garden. Not many whites though. Yours is exceptionally pretty.
