Sweet little Narcissus there, Fermi! I just love the pale yellow ones.

Hi Matt,
in our garden the sequence of "hoops" seems to be white, then lemon, then the deeper yellows.

Here's a hoop from Glenbrook: Ianmon
And the flowers of Viristar are fading to white-white

The label says Narcissus Limequilla X Emerald Sea (not virition, as the pic says) 06-2MJ (sown) March 2014 and came from Lawrence Trevanion. Lovely greenish flowers.

Even I have a few Narcissi flowering in pots :)

1. A pot of seed-grown hoops (don't know what the white one's doing in there but, it's very welcome!) and

2. N. assoanus (ex JJA seed)

Narcissus 'Galligaskins' a hybrid hoop from Rod Barwick's Glenbrook Bulb Farm.
First flower on this selection of Narcissus fernandesii var. cordubensis which Lawrence Trevanion raised by crossing 2 different clones,

Hi
It is a very odd season here with quite a few daffodils flowering exceptionally early.

Hi
Part 5
Fermi, Pilgrim Clay normally opens in early September not July. But then again most of the flower in this post usually flower late August and in the case of N. dubius mid September!

Nice to see your new stuff, Graham.
Do you think I may've mixed up my labels? Does this look like Pilgram Clay?
