Graham that white pink is fantastic, I want it

Graham,

That white-pink mini is a cracker.  So many nice ones of yours (and everyone else's for that matter) in this topic.  Very frustrating that I was in Victoria for the Hort show and didn't get to see your wonderful daffs this year.  Now I have to wait a whole 'nother year to see them. 

Thanks for posting, everyone.

A few more from our garden,
the double Narcissus poeticus (you can see one at the back which appears to have reverted to a single form!)




"Fairy Chimes"


"Puppet"


"Cherie"





"Indian Maid" (nothing to do with the Commonwealth Games!)



cheers

Really nice, Fermi. I can smell the poeticus from here.

[Kees Green]

Fermi that Cherie looks lovely

[fermi de Sousa]

Really nice, Fermi. I can smell the poeticus from here.

Thanks, Anne,
is this one grown over there?

Fermi that Cherie looks lovely

Kees,
It's one of the taller jonquilla hybrids and has slowly built up to a nice clump. A taller, less exuberant version of "Belle Song" 

Here's the first flower on "Kenellis" a bulbocodium hybrid raised by Alec Gray,


And "Hillview Triquill" from Marcus Harvey at Hillview Rare Plants,


cheers

Hello to all
I have this Narcissus in flower, could be N. serotinus?

[Gerdk]

Alessandro,
Yes it is - and if you follow the latest records you can name it Narcissus miniatus.

[arillady]

Allessandro that is a lovely species.

[annew]

Fermi, yes it is - I planted a dozen last year and not one came up! I must try again.

[David Nicholson]

They are on their way folks!

Couple of pics taken at our AGS Local Group meeting last night-Narcissus cantabricus foliosus

This example was grown by Geoff Stewart from bulbs he got from Mike Quest. Mike, who is a regular "lurker" on our ramblings, (and one of these days I'll get him posting!!) had three pots in full flower on the sale table. Meanwhile my bulbs, also obtained from Mike, don't show a single bud yet

Both Mike and Geoff only brought their pots under galss when they were in full bud.

Crikey! That's amazing.... as the rest of the UK turned the clocks back an hour these Guys  seems to have fast-forwarded several weeks!
These flowers are so wonderful.... still a shame that more folks do not grow them.
