Thanks Luc. If I'd enlarged the pic I would have seen that but then why would I enlarge a pic when the plant is grown for its smallness? So a real baby then, definitely cute as Chris says.

Must get that. I call James 'Jim lad' when I'm in a good mood, though it's a long time since he was remotely as cute as that little gem. :D

Rafa

I wandered along the Pyrennese for two weeks from Nuria to Portalet and saw about a dozen species. It was in 2004 and I took only a few digital pictures the rest were slides.

Very beautiful trip Tony,

Have you seen Narcissus moleroi?

I see in his article AGS66 vol 3 John Blanchard considers it a form of alpestris and I visited the site at cerler and there were thousands of pale yellow 'alpestris' so I suppose the answer is yes. here it is.

I cannot reply further today as I am of to Nottingham to look at some galanthus.
