Comments

A description from the Riverdale 1976 catalog: “Of all the years of breeding daffodils, we consider that Tasmania is our best, a large flower, bred from Artist’s Model, the perianth open yellow and the large flat cup is up to 2-1/2 inches across, open off orange bronze, and as the flower ages the perianth goes milky white, and the cup goes a darker shade of orange. It is just really stunning. Brings many a gasp from visitors.”
