Basic Daffodil Show List
The basic show list of daffodils should include all listed RHS divisions, and some classifications that are extra-divisional. When I say extra-divisonal, I mean outside any single single division, such as collections of pink, red/orange, reverse bi-colors, white, yellow, or miniature, etc. The extra-divisional collections may be made up with as many divional representatives as the shower would like to include. Take a look at this show list.
