Narcissus 'February Gold' is one of the first daffodils to join the Snowdrops, Winter Aconites and Early Crocus. As far as I know the first daf to bloom is 'Rijinveld's Early Sensation' in January or even at Christmas. This cultivar is credited to the noted breeder of narcissi Herbert Chapman circa 1943 so who, what or where was Rijnveld??
