Comments

Corona opening very faintly tinged lemon, becoming white.

According to The American Horticultural Society’s 1937 issue of the The American Daffodil Year Book, Guy L. Wilson’s article “Some Modern Daffodils for Garden Decoration” states: “White Conqueror is another fine robust border variety, an upstanding plant which carries its large flowers well above its strong blue-green leaves.”
