Sponsored by the American Daffodil Society
• Founded in 1954 to promote a wider interest in daffodils.• Create more exhibits of daffodils through shows and public plantings.• Set standards for daffodil shows and judges.• Promote and encourage scientific research on the genus Narcissus.• Serve gardeners’ needs to learn more about all aspects of growing
daffodils.

What Are We Trying to Accomplish?
• Make you a better exhibitor and judge by:– Reviewing ADS judging rules for historics,– Providing a vocabulary for describing daffodils,– Pointing out features that identify 60 historic cultivars,– Helping you discriminate between look-alikes,– Discussing common judging errors,– Mentioning some show tactics,– Providing references for further reading,– And getting you pumped-up on historics!

What are Historic Daffodils?
4
• Historic daffodils are named hybrids and not wild narcissus. They must have been introduced or in gardens prior to 1940.
• They may be entered in the “Historic Section” of a show.
• A reference list of historic daffodils may be accessed on the ADS website under “References and Resources” and called the “ADS List of Historic Daffodils”.
• Also see DaffSeek’s “Special Classes” on the “Advanced Menu”.
• Why not 1900 or 1945?• Why not species and intersectional hybrids?
![Page 5: Exhibiting and Judging Historic Daffodils - DaffTubedafftube.org/.../2013/10/Exhibiting_And_Judging_Historic_Daffodils.pdf · Sponsored by the American Daffodil Society • Founded](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022041719/5e4d3f9efdb080107f22203e/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
What are “Heirloom” Daffodils?
• The term “Heirloom Daffodils” is a commercial term used to designate daffodils appropriate for use with historic architecture or in “period gardens”. It is not a recognized ADS term.
• Not synonymous with “Historic”.• Include species, natural intersectional hybrids,
many historics, and some post-historic cultivars.• No broadly recognized definition.• Most historics are heirlooms but not all
heirlooms are historics. 5

Additional Rules• Blooms in Historic Section may only compete for ADS
Historic Ribbons. However, blues in the Historic Section count toward the Silver Ribbon.
• Historic daffodils may be also entered in any appropriate section other than the Historic Section. In judging them, use the scale of points for judging the section in which they are entered. They may compete for ribbons in that section.
• Judges must verify that historic entries were introduced or were in gardens prior to 1940 (check in “Show & Grow” or DaffSeek).
• The year the entry was introduced or in gardens should be on the entry card.

Why Historic Daffodils
• To encourage the preservation of these rare cultivars.
• To capture the general public’s interest.• To show the hybridization history of the
genus Narcissus.• By encouraging the growing of historic
daffodils, the germ plasm is preserved for the use of future researchers and hybridizers.

Historics in Daffodil Shows
• Species daffodils and natural intersectional hybrids are shown in Division 13 of shows and are not eligible to be shown in the Historic Section. They are not considered Historics.
• The next slide shows a special scale of points to be used in judging the Historic Section.

Key to the SlidesThis slide shows what to expect in the slides that follow. • The title line gives the name, hybridizer, the first year of
flowering, and the class/color code. • The second line lists some of the synonyms if any. • The main body of the slide contains several photos of
the cultivar being described. Most of the photos were taken from the DaffSeek database and were provided by ADS members or Old House Gardens. Also included are key identifying features of the cultivar being described.
• The note area contains the “Comments” field of the corresponding entry in the DaffSeek database.
• The slides are presented in division order and alphabetically within division. 10

N. poeticus Sports
A number of different double variants of N. poeticus have been recorded, but the identity of the original poeticus 'Plenus' remains unclear. Two variants currently in cultivation are treated as 'Tamar Double White' and 'Spalding Double White'; any other older names not known to be directly related to either of these are referred to as poeticus 'Plenus'.

• What issues have you encountered judging historics? Other divisions?
• How do you judge historics you don’t know?• How do you encourage people to enter historics in your
show?• What do we mean by symmetry in historics?• Should the best historic in show usually be Beryl?• Should ADS create another historic class in shows for
cultivars registered or in gardens from1940 through 1964?
