I'm having no luck posting photos just now - I'll have to try later when it's a bit quieter.

Still no-go on posting photos. Am I going to have to get up in the middle of the night (unheard of unless there are bats needing to be watched)?

My fault. I was trying to get them from the wrong folder so the files were too big. :-[
Here are some more new babies, plus an update on the pot I showed you earlier. K numbers refer to bulbs I had from Keira nursery in Australia. The pale seedling in the first photo is my favourite.

This year I've noticed this damage on the trumpets of 3 or 4 pots of daffodils. I'm hoping it's just frost damage to the embryo flowers. Anybody any other ideas or similar experience?

Khalid, what pristine large flowers for your first two pictures.... you must be pleased with those?
Little 'JetFire' is sweet.... a long time from being open here, of course.

Thank you Maggi

Yes, the first two are very big flowers. My hand is back and is very small compared ;)
