Jon's Mini-codiums and More

2016

A few days before the Northern California Daffodil Chapter’s Murphys Show (on March 19 and 20), I

was able to bring a small number of miniatures to the show. The next week, I was able to bring many of my

late flowering miniatures to the Fortuna Show. Nancy and Jerry Wilson attended the show. It was good to see

them. Nancy offered a judge’s refresher course on grooming daffodils.

I will be offering Walter Blom’s cultivars again. Last year, some cultivars were in high demand and

stock was in short supply. My bulb listing is primarily miniatures and dwarf daffodils in Divisions 1, 3, 5, 6, 7,

8, 10, and 12, as well as, Division 13 (species). I’m offering a few miniature tazettas (Division 8) as my stock

has increased enough to offer a few. Also, I’m offering a couple of fall bloomers but have limited supplies:

(Emerald Monarch 8 G-W), Autumn Charm (6 W-GYO), and Tequila Sunrise Group 12Y-O.

Any questions about this listing, please can contact me at:

Spring Serenade

5 Y-Y

I want to thank all of the people that ordered

bulbs from me last year. This was my first time

getting orders filled and it was a learning experience.

After many years of drought conditions in California,

it finally rained. Here in the San Francisco Bay Area,

we had ample amounts of rain. My daffodils were

very happy. My earliest daffodils (fall flowering

species such as N. virdiflorus, N. miniatus, and N.

serotinus, and fall flowering bulbocodiums bloomed.)

started blooming in October 2015. More fall bloomers

flowered (fall blooming cultivars, tazettas,

bulbocodiums which included N. cantabricus, N.

romieuxii, and Division 10 cultivars) in November

and December. Many of the late winter / early spring

bloomers (particularly the miniatures in Division 1, 2,

6, 9, 10, 11, and 12) grew vigorously and bloomed

during the months of January through early March.

The season was going to be early again. During the

end of February and first week of March, I was in

Arizona on vacation (went to baseball spring

training), and upon our return home, it stormed and

noticed that most of the miniatures that were coming

into bloom were ravaged by the heavy winds, rain,

and pests.

Notes:

The blooming season is only an estimate and varies from region to region in the United States. Some of the

Divisions will do better in different climate zones within the United States. I have lived my entire life in

California and live in Zone 9 / 10 and do not know the hardiness of daffodils in other regions of the United

States.
