Newly on ebay - finishing Thursday.
Galanthus Dryad Gold Bullion -multiplying rapidly and flowering freely, it is smaller and later than Sovereign, and would be a wonderful addition to your collection of yellows.
Galanthus Estonian Spirit Group clone Käina 2007-3, shown on a raised bed here in North Yorkshire last winter.
Galanthus Hatpin has to be in the running for the tiniest double snowdrop, not only very miniature but usually perfectly regular flowers.
Galanthus Ronald Mackenzie is always much in demand because it is so rarely offered, and never in any quantity.

Delicious daffs!
Narcissus ‘Andy Blanchard’ is a dainty and unique true miniature with usually only one flower per stem, when it looks just like a creamy lemon form of N. cyclamineus. Larger bulbs may have twin flowers. It has won many show prizes, and is popular both with exhibitors and alpine specialists.
Narcissus ‘Cheep’ is a very popular white miniature cyclamineus hybrid, the charming flowers opening creamy white, and fading to pure white. It is an excellent show flower which has won many prizes including the prestigious Best Miniature at Royal Horticultural Society Rosemoor 2014. Demand always exceeds supply.
Narcissus ‘Despera’ is offered for the first time this year in very limited numbers. Awarded the prestigious Best Miniature at the Royal Horticultural Society early show in 2016, it is a top performing bloom for exhibition. It has perky sunshine yellow flowers with a short well reflexed perianth and long, slightly flared corona making this true miniature a favourite both with exhibitors and gardeners.

Lastly, two treats if you are not into 'drops or daffs 
ANEMONE RANUNCULOIDES ‘GOLDEN DREAM’ is probably the most amazing of the Estonian double yellow wood anemones - flowers can vary from season to season, and within the same plant in one season. The flower usually has striking green petaloids emerging from the centre of the flower, but some flowers will be almost normal or with a condensed, dark green centre. Much in demand, and a stunning talking point in your garden.
Fritillaria alburyana is very rarely offered for sale. A beautiful Turkish species, flowering as the snow melts. In its haste to attract pollinators, the flower opens as soon as it clears soil level, then the stem continues to lengthen to about 10cm. I keep mine in a slightly damp, shaded plunge during the summer, then in a cold greenhouse during the winter and spring, where the beauty of the flowers can be appreciated close-up.

Narcissus ‘Cheep’ is a very popular white miniature cyclamineus hybrid, the charming flowers opening creamy white, and fading to pure white. It is an excellent show flower which has won many prizes including the prestigious Best Miniature at Royal Horticultural Society Rosemoor 2014. Demand always exceeds supply.

Finishing tonight, our listings on ebay at present include a major award winning miniature daffodil, and two new miniatures being released for the first time in very limited numbers, plus three of our speciality yellow snowdrops. The rulers in the photos are in CM.
Brian Duncan's ‘SLEEK’ was a big winner at RHS Rosemoor this year being awarded not only the prestigious ‘Best Miniature’, but also a much coveted First Class Certificate.
This little beauty is a multi award-winning miniature cyclamineus hybrid, with a pure white perianth, and creamy lemon frilled corona. Growing to only 10-12 cm high, with short, upright foliage, it makes a superb pot plant.
It is classified for exhibition as 6W-Y, and makes very tiny bulbs.
Also from Brian, ‘COSETTE’ is an flamboyant miniature cyclamineus hybrid, with white reflexed perianth and long bright primrose corona, prettily flared and fringed at the mouth. It has been twice part of a winning Alec Gray Trophy group at Royal Horticultural Society daffodil shows. It is classified for exhibition as 6 W-Y.
From our own Dryad Nursery, ‘LITTLE JEN’ is the first of my seedlings to be considered good enough for my daughter to choose as ‘her’ daff! It is a delicately beautiful x rupidulus cross with 1-3 cool pale lemon flowers, and blue-green foliage, only 10cm high in flower.
Offered is one of the first of our small stock. It is classified for exhibition as 5 Y-Y

From our snowdrop stable - ‘Dryad Gold Medal’ is an ideal yellow to carry on the season from Gold Sovereign, flowering later, and with rounder and fuller flowers, this cultivar shares the same vigorous habit, is quick to increase and very free flowering. Flowering at 15cm, it has the typical extra-long ovary of the Dryad Gold group. The outer segments are smoother, broader and more cupped than Gold Sovereign.
Our Estonian Spirit Group choice this time is clone 2009/CS4. This clone is distinctive for its darker, more olive yellow mark, with a very narrow bridge, contrasting with a clear yellow, more rounded ovary. The flower hangs free of the spathe on a fairly long pedicel, the thicker textured outer segments being fairly strongly cupped, with a short claw.
Despite their fragile, ethereal look, these are tough customers, handling harsh winters in their native Estonia. They look great on a raised bed where you can appreciate their diminutive charms.
RONALD MACKENZIE needs no introduction – the highly sought after yellow form of G. gracilis, with double yellow marks on inner segments, and characteristic twisted leaves. Galanthus Ronald Mackenzie is always much in demand because it is so rarely offered, and never in any quantity. This is our last one of this cultivar this year.
