Remarks from the Weekly KAVB Flower Show - Lisse

[Regelian]

Luit,

those cybister-bred Hippeastrums are wonderful.  So hard to find them, although I've managed 2 or three over the years.  Thanks for brightening-up the season.!

I do hope it is o.k. when I show this year again pictures of the weekly Shows from Lisse  
During the former years I showed already many pictures, so it is possible that I show
some, which you already saw here.
Therefore I will show less pictures because it is likely that in such a short time not
so many new varieties will show up.

Here are some pictures of flowers, shown in the last two weeks.
I want to say on the forehand that I show flowers of the show, which does not mean
automatically that I like all flowers personally.
Narcissus                                                
During the last years growers try to perform Narcissus with special treatment of the     bulbs for pot culture.
   People may buy these in spring in bud, and plant them later in the garden.
Here a good example
Narcissus [pot] Attraction                                

Then some new narcissi which are not registered yet, because the names are sometimes not valid, or the name was used before, but maybe not in culture anymore:

Narcissus Sun Gold                      
Narcissus Play Fair                                  
Narcissus New Innovator

and a few tulips:
Tulipa Dimension      
Tulipa Cracker    
Tulipa Holland Queen  

[Lvandelft]

some more narcissi:
Narcissus Brackenhurst                                    
Narcissus Big Gun 1                                   
Narcissus Big Gun 2                                      
Narcissus Trepolo                                        
Narcissus Div. 8 Hugh Town (Matador x Grand Soleil d'Or)                  
Narcissus Div 4 Romanus (syn. Double Roman)                              

and some nice pots with snowdrops:
Galanthus 1                                              
Galanthus 2                                              
Galanthus Anglesey Abbey                                
Galanthus rizehensis

[Lesley Cox]

Thanks for these lovely pictures Luit. My vote would be for seeing again what we've already seen in previous years. After all, in our gardens the same bulbs appear each year (at least, we HOPE they do and we are always delighted to welcome back old friends as they flower yet again. Besides, each year there are new Forumists who won't have seen what was shown last year.

Is Trepolo a new break? Not sure if I like it or not.

[Ragged Robin]

Luit, it's just lovely to spend winter days admiring the early flowers at Lisse...and I haven't seen them before so thank you for posting them - there are some very unusual looking Naricssus on show.

Are the Dutch using micropropogation on snowdrops?

Thanks Luit.  I enjoy these visits to the Lisse Flowershow very much (though perhaps not the more 'developed' cultivars ).

Why should they Mark? The woods are full of them

[Lvandelft]

Same for me Lesley, but I cannot answer you question.

[fermi de Sousa]

Luit,
please don't hesitate to show us flowers you've shown before! We have short memory spans!
And we really enjoy these visits to your Shows.
cheers
fermi

Thanks in advance for a new series of tours Luit !
As people said before me, we don't mind seeing the same nice things two years in a row, especially now in these gloomy days (we have snow again...  ) every ray of sunshine is welcome !

[David Nicholson]

You post 'em Luit, I'll read every one of them.
