    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Named for Lily Langtry, the spirited actress whose affair with King-to-be Edward VII titillated Victorian England, this rare beauty has milk-white petals and a crinkled canary cup that matures to cream. Guy Wilson, famed breeder of new daffodils, wrote in 1929, "I hope we shall not lose altogether some of the older flowers of such undeniable beauty and grace as 'Mrs. Langtry'." 2 W-WWY, 18-20", zones 5-7bS(9WC)
