Hello!
As a recent master gardener volunteer and as a Long Island Horticultural Society member and director, I was given the task of identifying the existing daffodils in Caumsett State Park in Lloyd Harbor-Huntington, NY. I think one is the tête-à-tête miniature daff but are there two sub-varieties here as one plant has pointed petals while the other has rounded petals. There are two other varieties I saw, too. ! I have photos I would like to send you. Is there an email address? Thanks so very much!
There are 3 or 4 varieties in the park. One is the tête-à-tête miniature daffodil however there seems to be two different types- one with pointed petals and the other with rounded petals.
Also, I saw what I would refer to as the traditional old fashioned all gold daffodil and then there is another one with pale yellow petals and a gold trumpet center.
Please see my attached photos. Thanks again for everything!

Send them to Sara Van Beck and the Historic Committee. They look old and
could be King Alfort substitutes. Definitely not tete-e-tete.

The last picture reminds me of Little Beauty.
Now that you mention it, it does look like Little Beauty that is found on
daffSeek.
