For the Daffanatics, our daffodils will include exclusive true miniatures from both Dryad and Brian Duncan in Ireland, including many show winners:
NARCISSUS FLING
Super flowers of excellent form in perfect proportion on short stems. Reflexed white perianth and lemon yellow corona.

NARCISSUS CITRON BABY
A favourite with visitors at our open day. Fresh, pale lemon flowers on 15cm stems. Beautifully scented.

NARCISSUS GALANTOQUILLA GROUP
Brian’s ‘snowdrop daffodils’ - similar in size, shape and flowering time to snowdrops. A perfect variety to take you from snowdrops to daffodils.

NARCISSUS LITTLE DRYAD
Obviously my favourite, named for my nursery. A beautiful and refined flower, it makes a wonderful pot plant but should also be hardy outside.

NARCISSUS LEMON BREEZE
Bright lemon, slightly reflexed flowers on short stems.

NARCISSUS CANTABRICUS PETUNIOIDES
This is a superlative form of Narcissus cantabricus which originated with Van Tubergen. This is the first time I have been able to offer a bulb of this clone, and I can only spare one bulb.

NARCISSUS SLEEK
A superb miniature daffodil from world-renowned Irish breeder Brian Duncan.  Currently holding the record for a miniature daffodil on ebay.

NARCISSUS WEE NOD
Elegant miniature cyclamineus hybrid, with reflexed white perianth, and long, fluted corona which opens lemon yellow and matures to white. It was awarded the prestigious ‘Best Miniature’ and a much coveted First Class Certificate at RHS Rosemoor in 2018.

For the Galanthophiles, our snowdrops this session include many of our signature yellows, and other rare delights:
GALANTHUS DRYAD GOLD MEDAL is an ideal yellow to carry on the season from Gold Sovereign, flowering later, and with rounder and fuller flowers.

GALANTHUS DRYAD GOLD NUGGET
Dryad Gold Nugget is the first to be offered of the Dryad Gold varieties with a yellow ovary and chartreuse inner mark. In effect, a reversed ‘Blonde Inge’.

GALANTHUS DRYAD GOLD RIBBON
This cultivar has the largest inner mark of all the Dryad Gold group.

GALANTHUS DRYAD GOLD STAR
One of our more diminutive Dryad Golds, Dryad Gold Star is a beguiling little snowdrop with large full flowers which open like drop-earrings from long buds.

GALANTHUS ESTONIAN SPIRIT GROUP  clone 2009/CS3
FIRST TIME OFFERED The mark (at least under glass) is a pale pistachio green, while the ovary is more yellow. It is free flowering.

GALANTHUS KOENENIANUS X FOSTERI
Rare hybrid snowdrop, the leaves closely ridged on the backs.

GALANTHUS RAMSEY 2
A hybrid from Ian Christie, the large green apical mark extending as 2 arms towards the base.

GALANTHUS REGINAE-OLGAE BLANC DE CHINE
Rare albino autumn snowdrop. Always admired at the autumn shows.

GALANTHUS RONALD MACKENZIE
Rarely offered yellow form of G. gracilis, with double yellow marks on inner segments.

And for something to go with your drops and daffs :
CROCUS HEUFFELIANUS SNOW PRINCESS
Dirk Schnabel’s lovely seedling, much admired when in flower, and not often offered.

ANEMONE NEMOROSA EXPLOSION
An amazing variety found in Norway after the Chernobyl disaster. The double flowers are very variable from season to season and flower to flower on the same plant. Flowers usually contain a mixture of white, green and crimson.

Good luck!

NARCISSUS KS/M/1/2007
First time on ebay - Bred by Keira Bulbs in Australia, this superb little cyclamineus hybrid won the prestigious Best Seedling Under Number at RHS Rosemoor last year.

NARCISSUS LITTLE FINN
Named for my toddler grandson, this is almost a perfect ‘Mitzy’ in miniature, growing to only 10cm high, with naturally tiny bulbs.

For the Galanthophiles, our snowdrops this session include many of our Dryad introductions, and other rare delights:

GALANTHUS KOENENIANUS X FOSTERI
Rare hybrid snowdrop, the leaves closely ridged on the backs.

GALANTHUS CORRIN
Bred by Rannveig Wallis, this is a superb neat inverse poculiform with plump flowers bearing a double mark on the outer segments.

GALANTHUS MISS PRISSY
Named after the Looney Tunes cartoon character, this is a delightful new double with distinctive outward facing flowers and often with quilled tips to the outer segments.

GALANTHUS SQUIRE BURROUGHS
This one is as rare as hen’s teeth, but so beautiful. The shape of the flower is supremely elegant, with gracefully pointed outer segments.

GALANTHUS THE EYES HAVE IT
A nivalis x plicatus hybrid from Ian Christie, with a narrow inverted V at the sinus and 2 diffuse pale ‘eyes’ at the base of the inner segments.

And for something to go with your ‘drops and daffs :
ANEMONE RANUNCULOIDES GOLDEN DREAM
The most amazing of the Estonian yellows - 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.

Good luck!

Congratulations  on the  results   for the  bulbs  sold  so far  on  ebay, Anne  - I note  record  prices  for  some! The  buyers  must  be  both excited and  delighted to be  successful - with the  numbers  of  "sold  out" signs  on your  nursery  list  these  sales  add a  frisson  for those  collectors, I'm sure.

Thanks, Maggi. Ebay reaches a much wider audience that my normal list - I know many people are disappointed when the choicest things disappear from the list before they have a chance to get them.
