Comments

Fl. rounded, 112 mm wide; perianth segments very broadly ovate, mid-yellow, smooth or only very slightly ribbed, deeply overlapping; corona funnel-shaped, orange-red, mouth flared, with rim regularly lobed. Resembles a larger and smoother-flowered ‘Milemcro’ of better balance.

Origin of Name

Part of Colin Crotty’s “Valley Series”. Named because the daffodil was bred in Pleasant Valley which is on the outskirts of Geraldine, South Island New Zealand.
