Daffodils at Rowe Woods

The Krippendorf Estate, which is now a part of the Cincinnati Nature Center, was famous in the early 1900s for the spring display of daffodils. Mr. Krippendorf planted numerous daffodil bulbs arround his estate and invited the public to visit each Spring. The photos below, courtesy of Jeff Mancini, show the subtle details of several daffodil variants. An interesting article that appeared in 1921 in Vogue¹ magazine can be found at this link.
