Thanks for the information, Fermi. Sounds worth pursuing.
Amazon does not seems to have it yet.
Amazon UK say pre-order now for delivery in January 2017! Sounds an interesting book as do her other subjects.
I found a seller online, but they only ship to Australia and New Zealand. http://www.booktopia.com.au/daffodil-helen-o-neill/prod9780732299200.html
Hi Rose,
Thanks for that link – as we’re in Australia I was able to order it (as well as a few others!) and should take delivery in a week or so. If possible I’ll give my “review” of of it when I get a chance to read it,
cheers

A very different , well researched , book on our favourite flower . Available in New Zealand from the Paper Plus chain of bookstores , price N Z $ 39 – 99 The research involved on such a wide range of daffodil related topics , from history , genetics and early personalities , is impressive . Conversations with current breeders Harold Koopowitz and John Hunter and Ron Scamp give a view on our possible future objectives .Daffnet and Daffseek obviously impressed the author and ,as we all know , are of great assistance on both historic and current daff research . Very well illustrated , particularly some of the older plate prints and early photographs . Well worth a read , quite a different style from most Daffodil books . Publishers are Harper Collins .
