After going on yesterday about how I only like white or pale daffodils I came across this photo by Rob Zimmer on the Wisconsin State Farmer website of bright yellow and green splashed Hostas emerging in a drift of equally colorful daffodils.
I thought this was a pretty stunning example of companion planting and one that might make me change my single-minded pursuit of white daffodils. Even though there are plenty of white daffs in this grouping, those yellow perianths are very bright and are the detail that makes this planting so effective. Plus the Hosta foliage will hide all the dying daff foliage as an added bonus.
I have some similarly colored daffs. The ones with the yellow trumpets. I think mine are a bit paler tho. I love this idea. Nice photo.
