Corona rich apricot orange.

According to The American Horticultural Society’s 1937 issue of the The American Daffodil Year Book, Guy L. Wilson’s article “Some Modern Daffodils for Garden Decoration” states: “Those who have found the color of ‘Folly’ unsatisfactory might try ‘Merryhill’, a flower raised by the late Mrs. R. O. Backhouse; this also is rather a late flower, having milk white perianth and a large cup of distinct and pleasing rich apricot orange that does not fade in the sun. It has not the refined quality of ‘Folly’, as the flower comes somewhat rough on established bulbs, but is nevertheless a very effective plant and grows with immense vigor.”
