Many flowers like tulips, daffodils and glads were once white and the breeders crossed them to give color. In time the bulbs become old and may revert back to white. Also there is a white daffodil so if you have stored the bulbs altogether they will all become white. Here's a good idea I came up with. I use to get so frustrated because I'd have to wait for my daffodils and tulips to stop blooming, wait for the leaves to die off before I could plant my summer flowers. I came up with the idea of getting a 10" pot and I would put 3 - 4 bulbs in each pot and then bury it where I wanted it. When the daffodils and tulips were finished I simply lifted the pot right of the ground and put them on the bench in the back of our yard to die off and I was able to get my summer planting done earlier.
Daffodils have two ways to reproduce:Asexually by bulbs producing clones of the parent plant.Sexually through seeds producing new and interesting hybrids.For the home gardener, it is best to grow the daffodils from bulbs, so that you'll know what you're getting. Removing the seed pods will allow more energy to be stored in the bulb for more flowers the following year. Also, growing daffodils from seeds is a waiting game. It will be 5-7 years before the new plant can produce a flower, and you don't know what kind of flower you will eventually be seeing.
Daffodils are cross pollinators. Most daffodils are grown for the florist industry, so they are usually hand pollinated by people. Since they have been so manipulated through the years, it is said that insects (bees included) are no longer attracted to them.
Daffodils can live for several years, typically blooming for 2-4 weeks each year. With proper care and maintenance, they can persist for many seasons in the garden. Some varieties may even naturalize and spread over time.
Most daffodils do not depend on pollinators because they have been so hybrid that their flowers no longer attract insects. Most breeders hand pollinate daffodils and have to wait five to seven years to see if their cross is a good one. There are some varieties that still attract insects.

Daffodils do not go to seed. The grow from bulbs ( the main root of the plant. ) I usually tear apart my daffodils every 4 to 5 years and separate the bulbs, and replant them in different locations. On a side note . . . Deer detest daffodils, so they are a great flowering plant to grow if you have a large deer population. Daffodils do produce seed. Seed from species will come true to type and can take a few years to produce flowers. Hybrids will not come true from seed so are multiflied by various manipulations of the bulbs.
It has always been the same
There are many wild daffodils that grow in the south. Basically, they are cultivated daffodils that escaped gardens and naturalized over a period of many years. They grow in pastures, ditches, in sweeps under trees, and anywhere their foliage can remain undisturbed by mowers.
Blue, Yellow, and white. The shades have changed over the years, but the general color scheme is the same.
A typical yellow star, like the Sun, has a lifespan of about 10 billion years. The Sun is currently about 4.6 billion years old, so a yellow star can be around that age or older.
Mostly white British but immigration in recent years has started to change that.
You can't change "yellow" gold to white gold. White gold is an alloy of gold that contains gold and another metal, often nickel, platinum or palladium. To make white gold, you have to first melt down gold, melt down your other metal and mix them in an alloy.
Land O'Lakes yellow American cheese is yellow from the natural coloring from the seed of the tropical annatto plant. That is the only difference between white American cheese and yellow American cheese. Now for the real answer: The true difference between white & yellow is only food coloring, its just a marketing ploy, white sells more in northern areas of the country, while the southerners like the standard yellow, there is no noticeble taste difference.
