There will be a short supply of fresh daffodils for the Cancer Society's Daffodil Day this Friday due to heavy snow and frost last week.
The bad weather and freezing temperatures in Wairarapa, Waikato, Bay of Plenty and Marlborough have prevented crops from flowering.
In Waikato, more than half of the daffodils from the region's supplier will not be ready for picking.
In Marlborough, the Cancer Society has lost the supply of more than 20,000 blooms.
