ADS Classics

In 2011, the American Daffodil Society (ADS) designated a new exhibition section for any daffodil registered between 1940 and 1969, inclusive named "Classics".

The ADS believed that such a section would interest a different segment of exhibitors and might encourage bulb growers to keep these post-war era cultivars available.

The ADS Historic daffodil period ended shortly after World War II started, when marketing and exporting of daffodils temporarily ceased.

When trade resumed, daffodils were different, improvements in form were most noticeable.

Comments

Perianth segments broadly ovate, blunt, very slightly mucronate, a little inflexed, concave and with margins minutely incurling, overlapping half; the inner segments more narrowly ovate, inflexed at base, reflexed at apex, a little twisted; corona cylindrical, mouth expanded and 6-lobed, loosely frilled, with rim irregularly crenate and widely rolled.

This might be the same daffodil as ‘Alpine Glow’.

There are no photos of "Roslyn" in Daffseek.
