David & Anne - lovely Narcissus.

Anne - I like your description of  N. eugenae  as "baroque" - seems most apt.

I'm trying to keep my mits off them for you to see, Mark, but some have made the ultimate sacrifice already, and have been mutilated for breeding porpoises purposes.

Anne:

The N. eugenae Clone 1 is a stunner!

A seedling, foundling, hybrid?

I wonder if anyone recognizes this Nariccus hybrid. I imported it in late 2007, the shots are from 10 April 2008 and I was certain I posted a photo of it. Unfortunately it prompty died, virus as I recall.

(Later found to be N. 'Tracey')

Anne - I'm not sure there is a suitable thread in which to post these sorts of private matters.  ;)

Jim, it arrived as one of 2 seedlings from exchange seeds. Below is the pot of the 2 seedlings, quite different.
