Tockwith Anne sets seeds, but I've never sown them. I've sent them to the exchanges. As for the compliments - I am little, but the rest is open to question! Very small avatars can be a jolly good thing.

Thank you, Anne. This seems to indicate that the cross is fertile. Perhaps
there is a receiver of your seeds who can tell something about germination? ::)

Can some one help with the ID of this species.
It is another victim of the Black birds that enjoy throwing out the labels.
It was sown a few years ago and first time in flower.

One from the greenhouse and one from the garden today.

From the greenhouse Narcissus x incurvicervicus, another from the Anne Wright 'stable' and another pretty little thing. The one from the garden is Narcissus 'Topolino'

Oron - I'm inclined to agree with Fred, but which form is anyone's guess. The fact that the style doesn't seem to be exserted ought to be a clue?

Gerry passed away  at home  on 25th February 2021 - his posts are  left  in the  forum in memory of him.
His was a long life - lived well.

Oron I was just writing this when Fred beat me to it but I would agree with Narcissus bulbocodium as well.
Difficult to put a supsp. on it but subsp. conspicuus is a possibility.

Lots of narcissus opening now - first a watieri x rupicola marvieri cross (flowers about 1.75cm across), then N. hispanicus 'Patrick Synge', which I struggle to keep going. Finally a tiny N bulbocodium nivalis Briganza form from Brian Duncan - the flowers are only 1cm across maximum.
