Nursery contributed plant descriptions

With its demure swan's-neck pose and "high-shouldered" petals that arch forward to embrace the trumpet, this sweet little Victorian daffodil is close kin to N. moschatus and the classic "Silver Bells" daffodil that graces so many old Southern gardens. Its lilting Irish name was the title of one of the 19th century's most popular plays. It means, fittingly, "fair-haired girl." 1 W-W, 10-12", zones 5b-8aS(10WC)
