Narcissus September - December 2009

[Gerdk]

These are superb, Gerd.
Is the hybrid scented?
cheers

Fermi,
The hybrid from Israel has a faint scent - not as much as one would expect from the tazetta parent.

Graham  - You an an incredible collection of Narcissus there.  I have been watching as they unfold by the day. 6a-a may very well be as you say be " a little large  for a miniature" but it is exquisite.

Keep the postings coming.

Ah yes, 'Bell Song,' another I have but had lost the name for, so thanks for that Ross. I really like its little pink cup. I don't like all pink cups. Can't bear 'Foundling' for instance.

[Kees Green]

My Bell song are about to flower as well, here are some others over the next few posts that have just started to show themselves-as usual help with any names will be appreciated.

And here are the others, it appears I have more doubles than I thought I had, dont really like doubles apart from Whitesail and this is not out yet, will post a pic when it is-is a miniature poet.

Is the small white cup 'Xit?'

Bell Song is yet to flower here; I think it's very similar to "Waterperry" but a more regular flowerer.

New in our garden this weekend, N. "Minnow", a little tazetta type


A nice clump of N. bulbocodium

and the first flower of Narcissus bulbocodium ssp graellsii from AGS Seedex 2006 (?)


And that lovely hybrid from NZ, "Hawera"


cheers

Here's one 'specially for Lesley.  Was posted on Daffnet

Hi
A familiar name on this winner from the Canberra Show!
I have posted a few photos for Lesley as well!!
We are entering our late flowering period now. The triandus and fernandesii hybrids are all starting to flower. Some are a bit later than normal. This is surprising because the season has been early generally speaking.
Lesley, Kees flower looks like a Division 3 flower rather than Xit which is a small miniature.

Hi
A few photos of some of our species flowering at the moment.

Many lovely things here but I am seriously tempted to say some very rude words!

I love the miniature N poeticus that Kees has grown    wondering if it smells like the wild one?
