History

In 2013 the Daffodil Society will have been in existence for 115 years.  Jan Dalton, the Society’s archivist, researched the Society’s history when he compiled and edited the book The Daffodil Society - 100 Golden Years which was published in 1998 to celebrate the centenary of the Society.

His article entitled The Daffodil Society – A Potted History reveals the close relationship between the Society and many great daffodil names of the past. Many of these are well renowned, as much a part of the history of the daffodil as they are of the Society.
