good to have the patience. Are they open pollinated or did you dabble with a brush?

Very nice Gerd. The form of Narcissus hedraeanthus from Sierra de Cazorla is especially attractive.
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.

This is a recovery Narcissus, which is slowly bulking up under Asphodelus acaulis. Could it be N.bulbocodium X romieuxii?

Of all the bulbs planted in the garden, Narcissus seem to be the ones affected by the severe weather.

I bought a lot of Narcissus at the Discussion Weekend, and they are only just emerging from the soil.

Is this a common experience?
