fermi,

I don't grow Narcissus; but, yours really kook good.

I am in USDA zone 8b where temperatures almost never fall below 15F -9.4C.  Rainfall 50" 110 cm + but none  June-September.  We seldom get snow; but when it comes we get 30" overnight. Soil is sandy loam with a lot of humus.

This is a daffodil at Tonkins Bulbs last week.
It's from Brian Duncan, a seedling from 'Foundling' but I'm not sure if it was sent here as seed or a bulb,

Hi Jeff,
I don't understand the science fully but 'White Marvel' is a sport of 'Tresamble' and I guess it simply reverted to what it had been previously, similar to the way a variegated plant reverts to plain green.
