The society was formed in 1962 by interested persons and originally
named the Australian Daffodil Society.
Our general aims are:
To spread knowledge of and cultivation of daffodils
Assist in the promotion and development of exhibition, decorative,
cut flower and garden daffodils
For members to work in friendship and fellowship in the development
of Daffodils
Provide and operate facilities for these purposes
The society holds regular meetings, workshops and flower shows
and produces three newsletters a year. We train and provide judges
for the program of Victorian Daffodils Shows
