A description according to Daffodils, narcissus, and how to grow them as a hardy plants for cut… 1907 by Arthur Martin Kirby, when known as ‘Double White Trumpet’ “This, we believe, is the only double form of an all white trumpet daffodil now purchasable, and even it is very rare. Botanically it is known as N. cernuus plenus being the double of the ‘White Swan’s Neck’ trumpet cernuus. The flowers are of exquisite beauty – cream-white, it resents manure.”
