Luit,
thank you - this could be a point. I'll check your hint.
N.x odorus is a natural cross between N.Jonquilla x N.pseudonarcissus.
Origin then likely Spain.

This is what is known as the 'Campernelle' daffodil isn't it?  if so, it definitely likes it hot and dry, but I find if it gets buried too deeply, or has too much competition it will quit flowering until the situation changes.

Paul when winter is over I hope to make a picture of 'Campernelle', because I saw it last week start flowering.
But at this moment it is snowing!

Luit,

Great pics as always.  So many wonderful flowers in there, that is for sure.  Seeing the place in person must be awesome!

So you're saying that 'Campernelle' is not odorus regulosus then?  I note that 'Campernelle' doesn't exist in Daffseek, although the "Double Campernelle" comes up if put in, with an synonomy of x odorus 'Plena'.  I wonder what the single version would come up under, if at all?

[Lvandelft]

Sorry Paul, I meant the Double Campernelle.

Paul,
it is the "Campernelle" daffodil. Thanks for your advices.
As they produced many offsets I'm going to lift them when dormant.

Greetings to one and all. Following on from recent comments about Pottertons Nursery may i kindly suggest that if you have a problem regarding naming of bulb, identification, quality of photograph or any such matter involving my nursery you address them to me in the first instance - to get them resolved. This should be your natural first option rather than gossip on this excellent forum. Robert Potterton

Hello, Rob, and a warm welcome to you. I would hope that anyone who had a problem with an item purchased from you, or any other outlet, would indeed raise that matter with you but I do not believe that that would, or should, preclude any discussion on such matters here or elsewhere between friends.

Hello Luit,
beautiful pictures. A lot for cultivar names I've never heared of.
Scilla melaina is cute. Where is the natural distribution of this species?
