That one is cute... short and tubby... it is singing my song!
I think the flush of colour at the end of the trumpet around the frill is very pretty. Is there just a hint of pink or apricot in there?

Afraid so - it was a stronger shade when it first opened. It also has that nice sparkly effect on the petals.

I like the touch of colour when it is subtle like that, just a hint of a tint around the mouth. Very smart flower, Anne.

Narcissus calcicola
‘Idol’
A gift from Wim de Goede.
The flowers are somewhat smaller than the MS 450 form posted above - 23mm diam. as opposed to 30mm - but the scent is just as good.
This is the second time I have attempted to grow this cv. The first time it disappeared after one year; I hope these last a bit longer.

"Hawera" A few small bulbs given to me in 2010 - didn't flower last year but seem to have settled into this pot.
I daren't plant small bulbs in my rock garden beds any more as they are grazed by mice/voles. So far this year they have had all my
F. meleagris
& a nicely flowering clump of
Corydalis solida
also
Tulipa urumensis
badly damaged.
