Butterfly Daffodil

moi je penche plutôt pour un beau narcisse**********************

Thank you Valeriane.
Happy Easter ♪♫

I love daffodils, as you may remember, dear Rosa, but I can't tell you much about their names, sorry...
This brave "survivor"shines in a glorious light and your image is perfect to wish you and your dear ones a Happy Easter , my friend!
Take care!

There are so many varieties Adele. I don't know where this beauty came from, but I am very pleased to see it. Just to let you know that my daughter had a wonderful birthday in the garden with her husband making an Italian meal and Sophie making afternoon cream tea! I sent everyone's good wishes to her and she was delighted and grateful :-)
Keep safe and healthy dear Adele. Happy Easter to you and your loved ones.

Schitterende opname van deze mooie narcis.
Prettige en gezonde paasdagen......

Thank you very much Frans.
Take care and enjoy Easter Sunday.
Best wishes, Rosa.

Amelia will know, I was reading somewhere that there is an app that will allow your mobile to identify plants and flowers. Say hello to the horses from me :)

I am hoping she will drop by Nick :-) I'll have to find that app! I took a few shots of the horses in the field this morning, in the misty atmosphere...I will say hello for you.
Take care and have a good Easter Sunday.

Happy Easter to you near your last Daffodil Rosa... It's a wonderful example!

Greetz, Christien.

Thank you very much Christien.
Happy Easter you you and your family.

Greetz & take care!
Rosa.

Remarquable et belle macro joliment partagée ******
Très bon dimanche pascal.

Thank you very much Malik.
Happy Easter weekend to you and your loved ones.

Beautiful indeed.

Thank you very much George.

SHE IS A BEAUTY !

Thank you very much Pam.

It is gorgeous with a great big beautiful trumpet. I can't tell you what it is I'm afraid. My garden is full of daffodils that I can't name. Your daughter's birthday sounds lovely. I hope you both had a good day even if you couldn't be together.

Thank you very much Jean. There are so many varieties of daffodil, I never realised!!
Lyndsay's husband and daughter spoilt her to bits....just wish I could have been there and tasted Sophie's scones ;-))

I just had a quick Google and I think you've nailed the ID. The are lots of different variations but this seems to be an Orangery Butterfly Daffodil.............and it's an absolute stunner. I've never seen one before!

Beautifully captured in fantastic detail and colour!

Glad you hear your daughter enjoyed her birthday with her family..!!

I didn't realise there were quite so many varieties Keith. Seems like it is the Batterfly Daff then. I don't know where it came from and there is just the one. It's a lovely surprise though :-)

Yes, Lyndsay had a great day, which she deserved. Thank you so much for all your kind comments. Hope you're enjoying the Easter weather! Take care.

Thank you Malik.

Superbe !

Thank you very much.

That’s a beauty, Rosa !

Thank you Ulrich.

Na da haben wir die selben Blumen vor der Linse gehabt ;-), Grüße vom MAIK

They say great minds think alike ;-))
Thank you MAIK. Hope you have a good Easter Monday.

Great shot Rosa! Love the backdrop perfectly enhancing the amazing Daffodil, such a strong yellow.

Thank you Doug. It's a pity there was only one of them. Maybe it will be two next year!
Take care and have a good week. Rosa.

A butterfly daffodil is the generic term for this type of flower which has a split corona/ trumpet. They look sort of semi-double, or even very double in some cases. They are certainly not my favourite as the breeders have gone too far in my opinion. I prefer what I tend to think of as Wordsworth daffodils, the wilder species form called narcissus pseudonarcissus. This one does have the advantage of flowering later though. ;-)

Thank you for the information Amelia. I didn't plant this bulb and have no idea where it came from but nice that it's a later flowering one....even though it is just one! I have to agree with you about the Wordsworth daffodils, real beauties :)

A beautiful daffodil image Rosa. It must be lovely to enjoy the flowers in your garden.

Thank you very much. The daffodils are over now except for this one, but the pansies are coming on nicely now. I am very grateful at this time to have a garden, unlike so many.

It does look spectacular with the orangey yellow! If you didn't plant it then maybe some animal brought it in, blackbirds rather love digging out bulbs;-)
