Breeding daffodils with specialist grower Will Ashburner of Hancock's Daffodil Farm!

This week on The Horti-Culturalists we're visiting the very beautiful Hancock's Daffodil Farm in Menzies Creek to the East of Melbourne. We'll meet owner and specialist grower Will Ashburner who'll talk us through some of the issues around breeding and selecting Narcissus which he's been doing for over thirty years. In this video we'll take a look particularly at Will's selection of Tazettas and Hoop Petticoats, and take a tour through his growing paddocks where you'll see row upon row of the most fabulous Daffodils in the most beautiful rolling landscape! You can find Hancock's Daffodil Farm website here: https://www.daffodilbulbs.com.au and the bulbs are sold whilst they are dormant in summer. There are many un named cultivars in this video, but the mayor groups we look at are: Narcissus bulbocodium - Hoop Petticoat Daffodil Narcissus tazetta Narcissus jonquilla Narcissus 'Grand Soleil d'Or' Narcissus 'Rip van Winkle'
