Thank you Yann!
N. obesus is one of the most undemanding species for me also!

You need to talk very seriously to it, Tatsuo!
Our recent trip to RHS Garden Rosemoor to exhibit in the Daffodil competition was a very daffy weekend. First the formality of the daffodil exhibition - cut flowers in vases, and an unprecedented number of miniatures exhibited. Four exhibitors vied for the nine single bloom class. Brian Duncan was victorious, but we gave him a fight.
Strangely, I cannot add pictures to the post... ???

Don't worry Chuck, you won't be the only one! I know some folks come straight to their favourite threads and will miss these notices, but it is quite impossible to  add them to all the active threads!
I do not doubt that my inbox tomorrow will fill with -" the forum is down  do you know "   emails!

Two new daffs to be registered:
Little Jen (my daughter finally thinks one is good enough to bear her name). It is a triandrus x rupicola, strictly speaking a x rupidulus, although with the cross being what it is, I would call it a x tripicola!
570406-0

570408-1

Fat Rascal, an obesus x triandrus cross with sometimes two flowers to the stem. Admired at the East Lancs show last weekend.
