It is a very old flower in American gardens. For all its unattractiveness, it’s about one of the toughest daffodils going. It is a wild sport double, domesticated at least by the early 1600’s. It was grown in the London garden of the Dutchman Van Sion (hence the secondary name). In some pristine settings in the mountains of western North Carolina and eastern Tennessee it can be seen in its ideal form, with the perianth whole and the doubling all confined to the trumpet. It’s called the Easter Flower there. |
