<< I don't think Bertie Ferris is quite that small, maybe 16" in my garden,
but
he's a lovely shade of orange-much purer than the foxy colour of H. fulva.
I don't grow any other small ones, I'm afraid. >>
This jumped out at me because I included a memorial piece about Bertie Ferris
in an issue of The Daffodil Journal a couple years ago. Bertie was a
wealthy, somewhat eccentric woman who lived in Texas. She was a grand
gardener and daylilies and daffodils were among her favorite plants. So you
should really be referring to this plant as "she".
