Which daffs are these

I did it with my dwarf irises and am at least consistently useless at remembering or noting down the particular type.

Any ideas?-they are around two foot tall, they don't smell particularly strong but they have that glow after the sun goes down that I am always looking for in a plant.

" they have that glow after the sun goes down"

Well I reckon you are Dead Wrong ... 'coz I think they are Rosy Sunrise :D

 

Aren't they narcissi?

 

There the same thing aren't they? Latin name is Narcissus and the common name is Daffodil

 

Ah right....

shuffles off...

 

Don't worry about it Aaron-I haver exactly the same problem because I am trying to learn the latin names of plants, and I have-I think whittled it down to the ice follies.

 

"shuffles off..."Nah, I'm right with you on Narcissus. I do think they look like what I have always known as Narcissus, but my definition of them is the lot that comes much later - and are less fun naturalised in the grass because the grass is long and shaggy before they are done flowering.

But if my definition has any "sway" then this aint one of them 'coz its too early.

 

I can't find a decent picture of Rosy Sunrise, and I think Ice Follies is much more well known, so you are probably right. Why isn't there a Be-all End-all pictorial dictionary of Daffs - heck! all flowering plants - on the web?

 

Awwwwww I feel really bad now:flag::flag::flag::luv::thumb:

To be honest though I've always called anything that looks like a Daffodil but isn't yellow a Narcissus

 

"I've always called anything that looks like a Daffodil but isn't yellow a Narcissus"

So this one is a Daffocissus or a Narf'odil then, is it? ...

.. I'll just be getting my coat then ...
