The N Z Daffodil Society 2009 Annual is just out ; a special thanks to editor Peter Ramsay .
It is a very fine publication ; Peter sets High standards and this is no exception.
And if it,s in the annual , it must be true .
When Graeme was visiting , we looked at a half open double in my 5 year old seedling patch.
G P commented ; looks very promising , whats the breeding ?.
Cool Lake — x — Lady Diana
Cool Lake is an unregistered 4 w w seedling of mine that sets a lot seed.
Breeding is Hawea 2 w – w — x — Blossom — 4 w – o
Lady Diana is a 2 w – w bred Lady Slim 1w – w — x — Gwyn
BOTH — Blossom and Lady Diana are mentioned in different features in the annual as good lines to breed from …
I,m pleased with an early white double ; it openned with a slight green hue in the centre , it matured to
an attractive , round clean white on a good stem and very short neck .
As they say, —– If it,s in the book , it must be right .
Cheers John
