Wilfred  Hall  and  I  had  arranged  to  have  morning  coffee  with  a  mutual  friend  on  Monday  morning , 14 DECEMBER.

I’m  sure  it  is December, almost the longest day,  but Wilfred produced a pot with a just  opened jonquilla,  flowering  happily.

7W – P  ,  PINK  SETTING,   Mitsch / Havens,  reg  2005,  first  flowered 1972 ,  Quickstep  O P .

A  very  neat  little  flower ,  2  heads  ,  flowers  about  2 inch / 50 mm.  Pale  buffy pinky  yellow  tones  in  cup.

Wilf  said  it  opened  with  a  yellowish  off  white  perianth  but  soon  went  milky  white. A  typical  jonquilla  fragrance .

Seems  quite  happy  in  it’s  pot , – multiplying  steadily .  He  said  thanks  Bob.

There  is  late  and  very  late  –  definitely  very  late.

  2. There are no photos of Pink Setting in DaffSeek. This could be the first.

    It’s kind of nice to have very early or very late daffodils to bloom, fall and winter blooming daffodils also.

    Thanks for posting.
