The first one looks like Salome, the second one might be Fortissimo (18" Fragrant Yellow with orange trumpet edged red), and the third pic looks like Thalia. Anyway those are my guesses. I'm not too sure about the second one; I've never grown one like it.

Kent,
What is the first plant, with the blue flowers? I'm not sure, but it may be the plant I am trying to put a name to growing in my garden, of which I have no recollection of ever planting! Take a look ... what do you think?

OK back to the daffs...the first two were in a collection from White Flower Farm (it was a great deal when I got them and had the best mixture of daffs). The white one came from an daff sale I attended in Pittsburg it was one of those designer daffs for shows and I have no clue what the name is but it's has full sized flower not small like Thalia.
