2016 Fortuna Daffodil Show Results

41st Annual Fortuna Garden Club Daffodil Show
“Promise of Spring”

Show results information are presented in the following format: the identification of the award; the name of the cultivar(s) and possibly the division (a number from 1 thru 13) followed by the color of the petals, a dash, and the color of the cup;and the name of the exhibitor.

Some of the daffodils have multiple colored petals and cups, so you will see more than one color identified between the dashes. For more information about the classification of daffodils see Classification Definitions.

2016 Julian Show

We just returned from the Julian, California show. It is not an accredited show and very few flowers are named. Nevertheless it is a FUN show. Somewhat fewer flowers than last year but still quite a number.

Here is a view of the show as one walks in…

The best collection of five different daffodils.

Does anyone have a name for this old white double. I was quite taken with it, but we are too warm to flower anything like this.
