Thanks to Roma, Arnold and Luc for the pics. I have one bulb of Camoro yet to show, and I can't say I blame it for staying under the soil at the moment.

Wonder if I quickly amend my Santa list and add a frost free veranda he'll be able to get it down our chimney?

A late Narcissus x alleniae - very close to N. viridiflorus.

I think this route is too expensive so I will put out a request for seed of these little gems. I'm especially keen to grow Narcissus viridiflorus here.
