[Brian Ellis]

Super, as usual, Luit.  I like the look of Muscari Maxabel - is it available yet?

[Maggi Young]

Narcissus Dallas and Lamlash catch my eye,as does the double Santa Claus... trying so hard to be a double Trillium or a Gardenia!

The light playing on the Gladiolus is stunning.
What a treat to share these shows, Luit..... we are ever grateful to you..... even if it can make us a little envious!!

[Lvandelft]

Super, as usual, Luit.  I like the look of Muscari Maxabel - is it available yet?

Brian, they were shown by a Forum member, maybe he knows more about ?

[Lvandelft]

The light playing on the Gladiolus is stunning.

I noticed them right away when I entered the hall, just because of the combination of flowers and the light Maggi, but had to pass the many other flowers before I got to them to make a picture

Magnificent tour once again, Luit ... I'm not really a bulb person but could be swayed!!! 

[Lesley Cox]

The Muscari are both very fine, and I like ALL the Narcissus vars. I wonder why that surprises me?

[Ragged Robin]

Luit, it is wonderful to return to your thread on Lisse Flower Show and see so many wonderful bulbs in flower rejoicing in Spring.  Like Anne I admire the presentation of the flowers and the immense care taken to show perfection in each and every one.  Thank you for all the time taken to show us these delights 

[Lvandelft]

Thanks all! You make me blush 

[Lesley Cox]

Thanks all! You make me blush 

That will be the pink form then?

[johnw]

Wonderful as usual Luit. Has M. 'Maxabel' gone to the trade yet?

John, have a look at reply 1054 .

[Wim de Goede]

Hello Brian and John, I showed Muscari Maxabel and I can tell  that it will be available about two years

We are the only grower and I got it from a lady Joy Bishop and she named it after her grandchildren,
Maxim and anabel (I hope I wrote the names right)
