I re-invited a Daffodil show judge I met last fall to come see the place. She has two shows to do and was in the middle of hybridizing her own miniatures, but was free by the middle of April when this place hopefully will be at its peak. If there is anything unique or unusual up here she may be able to spot it.<BR/><BR/>There is very muchChristopher C.

I just searched for all the W-Y ones in division 11 and came up with 166 matches. When restricted to only those listings with photos, I got 73 matches.

Is it the ones they call butterfly, or split cup? It has been snowing here off and on and has gotten much colder as the day progresses. We have lots of things in bloom, and are a little worried also about the flowers, no way to cover it Frances,https://www.blogger.com/profile/03616568389165362993noreply@blogger.com
