Daffodils for Exhibition
and Excellent in the Garden

 

AMERICAN CLASSIC (Havens) 1997 2Y-WYY L 19" (Sungem x Lemon Lyric) XH120/1. Perfection of form characterizes this flower, as the parentage would suggest. Very broadly ovate perianth of deep lemon yellow, every flower perfectly flat, very slightly reflexing at maturity. Straight corona opens buff, turning white at the base, leaving buff yellow at the mouth. One of our best show flowers.
02-958 $25.00 each.

 

American Peace

AMERICAN PEACE (Havens) 2004 5Y-Y  L 15" (Hillstar x
N. t. triandrus) Y93/34.  Well formed, the gracefully reflexed 
perianth is a deeper shade of luminous lemon than the cup-shaped corona.  Particularly well suited to the rock garden as well as the show table.  Possessing a light fragrance, there are generally 2-3 florets per stem.
05-822  $17.00 each.

 

BIOMETRICS (Havens) 2004 2Y-O  E 12" (Jetfire x Gypsy) TEH53/11. Nicely formed intermediate size flower which is fertile.  It has shown ability to set seed when crossed with miniatures and has potential for breeding red into miniatures.  Well formed flat bright yellow perianth and bright orange cup-shaped corona with slight ruffle.  A sibling to Velocity and Flint Arrow, however this one has a flat perianth and qualifies as a desirable addition to the intermediates.  
02-913  $9.00 each.

CEDAR HILLS (Mitsch) 1987 3W-GYY L 24" (Impala x Green Hills) KK87/3A. One of our favorites, the large green eye zone, which extends nearly half the cup, seems to dominate one’s attention when first observing. The absolute perfection of form and clean coloration are tributes to both its parents. Beautifully rounded broad white perianth and deep yellow short cup.
03-138 $5.00 each.

 

Emerald Empire

EMERALD EMPIRE (Havens) 1999 2W-GWW L 18" (Misty Glen x Angel) Y149/10. A large elegant flower with many of the positive traits of both its parents. Smooth flat perianth segments of pure white and rather small white frilled corona seem to intensify the large deep green eye. The broadly ovate perianth segments have a silken texture with the back three segments nearly touching. A smooth show flower with vigorous health.
02-562 $13.00 each.

 

Excitement

EXCITEMENT  (Havens) 2002  3W-YYO  L 18" (Unknown parentage) TEH123/2.  Pure white rounded perianth  accentuates the bright flat corona of mid-yellow with a brilliant orange red rim. Perianth segments are broad enough that the inner segments nearly touch.  Smooth and heavy with substance.  Makes healthy but rough appearing bulbs.
03-709  $17.00 each.

 

FLINT ARROW (Havens) 2002 6Y-O E 26" (Jetfire x Gypsy) TEH53/1. A sibling to Velocity, Flint Arrow also has a very deeply colored gold perianth with a hint of orange, apparently inherited from Gypsy. Perianth is reflexed, broader than most, and quite smooth. Narrow, straight, deep orange corona has a slight frill at the border. Truly multipurpose, Flint Arrow is suitable for show, for garden and possibly for hybridizing (has set seed for us).
06-911 $8.00 each.

 

Greek Column

GREEK COLUMN (Mitsch) 1993 1W-Y M (Wahkeena x V60/2) HH122/2. Well formed flat ovate perianth segments are white with a yellow halo. Trumpet of clear yellow. Heavy substance.
01-585 $5.00 each.

 

Lemon Brook

LEMON BROOK (Mitsch) 1991 2YYW-W L 17" (Euphony open pollinated) 2002. Straight cup with ruffle at the border, becoming pure white at maturity, the spade shaped flat broad deep lemon perianth with white halo resists tears making suitable for shows. Heavy substance with very striking clean contrast. 02-598 $6.00 each.

 

Pacific Rim

PACIFIC RIM (Mitsch) 1994 2Y-YYR M 17" (Montego x Ringmaster) TT35/1. If crisp, distinct rims are of interest, this one is superb. Entire flower of clear yellow, with a defined bright rim of solid orange red on the perfectly round flared corona, of relatively short length. It won Best of Show in three different shows across the U.S. the year after introduction. Recipient of the Wm. G. Pannill Award from ADS.
02-761 $11.00 each.

Perpetuation

PERPETUATION (Havens) 1996 7YYW-W L 11" (Hillstar x Quickstep) Y91/14. A bit smaller than Regeneration and very precisely formed, broad lemon yellow perianth segments with white halo, and round cupshaped corona, becoming white. Generally 3 flowers per stem with sweet jonquil fragrance. Fertile and very floriferous.
07-787 $6.00 each.

 

Phoenician

PHOENICIAN (Mitsch-Havens) 1995 2W-W M 15" (Broomhill x Canisp) TT23/18. One of the best of all of the flowers we exhibited at the 1994 ADS convention in Portland, winning best flower in the Hybridizers’ Challenge Class. Very consistent, broadly ovate, silken smooth perianth segments endowed with heavy substance. The 3/4 length corona is straight and in ideal balance to the perianth. Clean lines and clean white, excellent show flower.
02-774 $12.00 each.

 

Pink China

PINK CHINA  (Havens) 2W-P LM 16"  (Pink Ice x HEJ17) SEH3/1. Intermediate in size, this one is a gem in the garden and has exhibiting capability.  Rounded, flat, clean white perianth shows off the solid deep pink of the round cup shaped corona.  Frequent winner in shows.
02-769  $8.00 each.

 

Rosegarden

ROSEGARDEN (Mitsch) 1994 4W-R L 21" (Gay Time x Green Hills) 2P68/10. A beautifully formed full symmetrical pure white double with bright orange red petaloids with a lovely spicy fragrance.
04-766 $8.00 each.

 

Scarlet Tanager

SCARLET TANAGER (Havens) 1992 2Y-R L 13" (Bantam x Kindled) REH7/3. A relatively small flower of perfect form with very rounded smooth and flat perianth of clear medium yellow, the inner petals nearly touching. Bowl shaped neatly ruffled crown of brilliant orange red. A beautiful precise flower. Intermediate.
02-656 $5.00 each.

 

Ticonderoga

TICONDEROGA  (Havens) 2000 3W-YYO  L 14" (Merlin x ?) TEH108/10. While the parentage on this one says Merlin x Quick Step, we question whether the pollen from Quick Step “took.”  Very rounded flower, impressive for its symmetry.  A tiny yellow cup with a broad deep orange band, stands out against pure white perianth.  Generally produces rough appearing bulbs.  A superior intermediate as it grows here.   03-330  $6.00 each .

Trigonometry

TRIGONOMETRY (Mitsch) 1995 11aW-P M 15" (Recital x Phantom) 205/2. One of the best formed of the series of pink split coronas we have offered. Well formed white ovate perianth. Creamy pink corona a bit ruffled, but symmetrical and evenly splitting into the perianth. A regular show winner.
11-779 $7.00 each.

 

Vermont Hills

VERMONT HILLS (Havens) 2006 2W-GWW 17" L (Misty Glen x Angel) Y149/2 As most of the cross, this large white flower inherits the elegance and beauty from both its parents, resembling Angel but with a longer corona. Silken smooth, road perianth is flat, with heavy substance. The cup shaped corona appears to be very small, but upon measurement is well beyond borderline. The deep green eye is not as large and imposing as that of its sibling, Emerald Empire. Stands tall in the garden, is vigorous and increases well.
02-448 $13.00 each.
