Comments

Fl. 130 mm diameter; perianth segments creamy white, overlapping half; corona almost white, shading to brilliant yellow at rim, with mouth expanded and frilled. Pollen parent was possibly a Division 7 seedling.

According to The American Horticultural Society’s 1937 issue of the The American Daffodil Year Book, B. Y. Morrison’s article “Daffodil Novelty Trials, 1936” states: “Agnes Montefiore was first seen in a Scottish garden and was recognized as something to be secured without fail. Although some have suggested it as an improved ‘Tenedos’, this is scarcely so for there is a better carriage in the perianth and a lemon frill on the fluted cup. Only in vigor and stature does it suggest ‘Tenedos’.”

There are no photos of "Agnes Montefiore" in Daffseek.
