Regardless of what we call these enchanting hybrids, I hope we can all agree that they are sublimely beautiful  .... I think among the most beautiful of all narcissus  8)

Sorry if I insist, but I love this hybrid Narcissus x matritensis

So do I. Absolutely beautiful.

Narcissus romieuxii ‘Deep Yellow Form’

A selection made by Fred Hunt. This form retains its colour well - the flower is 3 weeks old - but I find it rather less easy to grow than other forms of N. romieuxii.

Thanks David & Luc.

Luc - that's a very attractive plant. Where do you get all these unusual hybrids?

Lovely Luc. Does it bulk up excessively :P :P

You have to repeat the cross and grow it up from seeds to obtain a potful.
