Narcissus 2010

Thanks for showing these Fermi. Vivienne and Camp Hill look especially nice.

Can anyone recall if the bulb of N. poeticus 'Actaea' differs from other Narcissus bulbs? We got a shipment of bulbs today and the 'Actaea' are packed in N. 'Aflame' boxes complete with 'Aflame' labels.  I see no difference in the bulb shapes.

Narcissus hybrid

[fermi de Sousa]

Narcissus "Minnow"


Narcissus "Bell Song"


Narcissus "Sighing"


Narcissus "Sundial"




Narcissus "Cindy Lau"


Narcissus "Angel's Whisper": there appear to be 2 types in this pot! A mix-up or a variation in age?
Type 1 is more "typical" of what we have as "A.W"


Type 2

Bellsong is a vigorous wee beast.  I might have to do a major cull this summer

 Seeing Fermi's picture and reading Ross' comment leaves me in a state of confusion... am I happy that such a gorgeous little narcissus does so well, or jealous that I don't have it doing that in MY garden?

I am sure there is absolutely nothing in your garden that does the same for you and not for me.  nope absolutely nothing.  No Siree

I don't usually like big double daffodils but this one - 'Wilf Carter' is particularly lovely and has a great perfume - plus it is doing well here so that is a plus too - I have a feeling it is an oldie.

Dates from 1960 Pat.  See http://daffseek.org/query/query-detail.php?value1=Wilf%20Carter&lastpage=1&

Thanks Gail - have saved the link to my favourites bar.
Uhm not as old as I thought but 50 years is kind of old now.

To answer my own question, Type 2 was newly opened and developed to look the same as type 1!

This is Narcissus jacquemondii from Marcus Harvey


I've also posted more daffs on the Southern hemisphere Thread as has Bill D.

Here are some of my daffs to flower in the last couple of weeks.

And a few more, should have said that Tinkerbell fades much the same way as Dovewings, snipe etc.
