| Posted by jmorth (central Illinois) on Apr 26, 2016 3:08 PM Mr. Snooty is one strange-looking Div. 1 (Trumpet) daffodil. It's star shaped with 6 twisted lemon yellow petals around a long golden yellow cylindrical trumpet. One noted breeder of daffodils postulates Mr. Snotty may be the result of a "spontaneous" hybrid between 'Golden Spur' and 'Princeps' and calls it a "Spurceps." [ Reply to this comment | |
