The one from me was never chipped Anne.  I'll have to have a look at my clump tomorrow afternoon.

Can you take a photo of yours? In fact I'd like to see anyone's flowers of this variety.

;D ;D In fact all the bulbs of it I have, from different sources, including yours, are acting strangely. I'm interested to know if they've ever been chipped? Maybe this is responsible for the faintness of the marks. Don't know about the ears though! Descended from James Backhouse or some similar crackpot variety maybe. Not complaining, all the bulbs were kind gifts.

I have many acting strangely this year. Flowers very small, deformed flowers, Atkinsii Moccas form acting like James Backhouse
