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.

Mitzy and Hummingbird are a great pleasure every year and were crosspollinated succesfully last season- the seedlings give hope for something similar, yet distinct in future years!
