I'm finding it very hard to leave the daffodil hybrid house just now... :D
Just as well that the International Daffodil Convention is in Canberra in September!  ;)

We had this pan of Narcissus Tiny Bubbles on the bench at Kendal  and it's looking even better now. We first saw it at our local Horticultural show in Ramsbottom because they have a section for the Daffodil Society. Just 3 stems in a vase but I thought they looked good. It is a x between N. cyclamineus and N. jonquilla there are two or even three flowers to a stem and it has a lovely perfume.

Two points about  'Tiny Bubbles' that resonate  with  me, Shelagh, first, two or  three flowers  to  a  stem and second, nicely scented. Sounds  good!
