Starting to see my new daffodil pots coming to life. Ive been building up a collection of heritage Daffodils after watching Carol Klein talk about them on a TV show about 3 years ago. This is Narcissus 'Snipe' (not to be confused with 'Jack Snipe', which is a different cultivar). Snipe is not quite heritage, but was first before 1948. It is a miniature dwarf, and part of the Cyclamineus group. The cups start as pale yellow, but fade to white.

#narcissus #daffodil #narcissussnipe - if you click the named hashtag, you'll see a pic I took at the RHS Early Flower show a couple of years ago of the same one showing the two different trumpet shades 😀
