Narcissus 'King Alfred'

Narcissus 'King Alfred' is a cultivar of daffodil which originates in the county of Devon, United Kingdom.

Walter became one of Newton Poppleford's biggest employers selling "King Alfred" daffodil bulbs and flowers throughout the United Kingdom.

[2] By the beginning of the 1950s, bulb production of Narcissus 'King Alfred' had dwindled to the point where it is seldom seen in cultivation outside of specialized nurseries by the 21st century.

[2] This is largely due to the fact similar looking cultivars such as 'Dutch Master' are being falsely sold under the iconic name of 'King Alfred'.

[4] Despite having multiple hybridizations in its ancestry, 'King Alfred' is both seed and pollen fertile[5] and has been used to produce various lesser known daffodil cultivars.
