I always think of this variety as the King of the Daffodils! My book says "The common name Daffodil is used when the central cup is as long as or longer than the petals" That's how I tell the real Daffodils apart from their Narcissus cousins! ;D

That's interesting, I did not know that. Thanks. King Alfred is a spectacular variety - very ornate central cup that resembles a king's crown. thanks
