I'm still breathless ;D Some lovely Daffs there Luit. Scilly White is gorgeous and such an old variety too, it should be seen more often.

What a potful of N. assoanus! Took my breath away for a moment.. :o
Yes indeed! They must have kept them in an oven over the summer - I had one flower.

I'm sure that some Dutch Magic was used to get such massed flowering in pots!
And 'Artic Gem' is a real gem.
Is 'Janneke' a pink jonquilla hybrid (5W-P)?
Thanks so much for keeping us up to date with the Flower Show, Luit,
cheers

Fermi, I believe that the magic is just to plant enough bulbs in a pot  ;)

Edit: About Janneke, (seen as a triandrus) but I heard some whispering of tazettas?? involved, I have really no idea. Will ask around a little bit...

Luit van Delft, right in the heart of the beautiful flowerbulb district, Noordwijkerhout, Holland.

Sadly Luit died on 14th October 2016 - happily we can still enjoy his posts to the Forum

Oh Dear, never thought of Yorkshire people are so susceptible for breathlessness.
Should I be available for a kiss of life? ;D ;D ;D
