Yes, Nial bought Brian's collection of Narcissus. Brian then decided to start breeding miniatures

Here's some more pics for comparison. First the cuckoo, now positively identified as a vigorous form of Narcissus rupicola. Then with cuatrecasassii form comparison. Finally N. calcicola.

Can't fathom Vivienne's Windows Vista.

Vista or Photo Shop?

Second daffodil is excellent - I would certainly take my trowel on the next walk.

Here in my garden today, having survived 2 days of light snowfall, my first bulbocodiums.  Can anyone supply a more definitive name please.

Vista or Photo Shop?

Did I say Vista? Mmm. Anyway, using aforementioned, I fiddle around with the size using Microsoft Office Picture Manager. The default seems to be Windows Photo Gallery which is as useless as an udder on a bull.

Photo Gallery is what I use to crop and resize my images.
Top right is says 'Open' - click on this
Next click on 'Microsoft Office Picture Manager', then 'Edit Pictures'  The rest as they say is easy....

Is N. Chipper one of your own crosses?  Is the colour true?  A very nice plant
