what a beautiful daff. Good one for the south. Fragranc. is not conventional like that of roses, jasmine, etc. but it definitely perfumes the gardens. This is my new fave daff.

A nice late-blooming bulb. The leaves are long, just as Spring Daffodils, and the flower(s), become so heavy for the stalks, that they tend to fall over, especially after rain.
The blooms are fragrant, (smelling of perfumed hand-creme), and would look impressive if grown in groups of 5 - 10. There are either 1 or 2 flower stalks per bulb.
A plant that needs no attention, except for staking after rain, preferably before a known heavy rainfall is due.
