Thanks, Fred!
I grow over 500. Could grow more, but I just collect according to my personal requirements and test only.

May I suggest a visit by Tulip lovers to the pages of Plantes Passion, where you wll see some fantastic photos of tulips, in solitary splendour and en masse  from several French Forumists  who are well known here.... Vincent26, Bulbissime and  Zephirine.......   http://plantes-passion.forumactif.fr/t4665-tulipa-2013

- it wouldn't hurt to check out the Narcissus page either, to see large groups of Narcissus dubius8) 8)
