I am in my mid-fifties and have been breeding for daffodils of intermediate size and small-cupped ones with pink crowns for almost 20 years. Breeding aims are clean white perianths and bright cup coloration combined with good plant habit & vigorous growth. Most of my seedlings do not increase fast enough and lack a little in consistency - I would be grateful for any suggestions for improvement and ask for leniency as far as my language is concerned

N. cyclamineus short & dumpy

This clone of N. cyclamineus grows 6-10 cm “tall”. It appeared to be vigorous with 3 buds from one bulb when I obtained it but there is almost no increase until now. It is obviously not the more elegant “Galicia-Form”
