They're all very nice, where was found cantabricus laciniatus?

It was a gift from a Croconut!

Here are some of my N. cyclamineus. They are among my top 10 bulbs for the garden.

...and a pretty little cyclamineus hybrid.

Beautiful - I have yet to find a place in my garden where they are happy.

More portraits of our miniatures, taken last week. Struggling to keep up now!

AW 3525-3-16 (F2 from Little Spell x KB/M/1/98 (Keira hybrid)) A very old-fashioned looking flower, which is why I like it - not an exhibition flower.

Anne you're little mini's are adorable.  It looks like you use a lot of cyclamineus in your breeding for that lovely swept back look.

Today I went for a walk in some woods near us. Narcissus pseudonarcissus (probably an introduced population) was in flower and looking very beautiful.

[Tristan_He]

Some closeups show the variation in the population, which was clearly self seeding.

Narcissus 'Canaliculatus' flowers reliably here in Cornwall.

Once its leaves have died down this area is mown regularly until next spring.

Very pretty Chad. This one doesn't survive for me here, I think it may be a little too cold.

Narcissus asturiensis



I was given this pretty little cyclamineus hybrid this spring - he nicknamed it 'Don's Daff'. I don't have the official name, if it has one.

Nice looking daffies. You N. asturiensis is holding itself very upright.
