I have shoots coming up from Don steed and a number of my own bulbo seedlings. Verdant sparks and seasons greetings are also in leaf. Coming for a flower this year from seasons greetings. Only foliage last year.
Photo is bulbo cross I made.

Hello, Ralph. It's only sold from Komoriya Nursery in Japan.
May be they will sell the bulbs on their e-bay store later.

Glad to hear it, Anthony.

After a couple of weeks away I'm pleased to find a strong potful of seedlings of a hybrid Narcissus of my own making with one parent being 'Craigton Clumper'. Clearly very vigorous genes from the 'Craigton' stable.

A pot of Narcissus 'Sweet Claudia'  is almost full blooming today. Its colours turned paler than 2 days ago.

Look forward to see photos of these new seedlings.

I don't understand why the commercial sources put such names when this plant is currently described as Narcissus x alleniae.
The correct parents, are N. obsoletus x N. viridiflorus . I am not sure if  N. serotinus x N. viridiflorus is described in the nature which is only possible in North Morocco.

For the people more analytic:
N. obsoletus x N. viridiflorus = Narcissus x alleniae nothovar. alleniae
N. viridiflorus x N. obsoletus = Narcissus x alleniae nothovar. rutherfordii
