Some better photos Fermi (even in the wind) - I am pretty sure it is N. fernandesii as other patches are starting now too. Half the size of N.jonquilla. I do so like these bulbs that are acclimatising here.

A "new" Div 6 from Keira Bulbs;
Narcissus Camoro
Narcissus Jessamy
Narcissus Kojak
Some Hybrid Hoops - the main ones are Kholmes or Smarple and there are some seedlings now in flower and some looking quite distinct.

Thanks, Anne.
More new ones today! :D
This tiny fellow was grown from seed sent by Rafa - collected in Spain.
The second pic compares it to 'Olumbo' - a more "standard" sized Hoop from Rod Barwick.

Those really tiny bulbocodiums are a favourite with me - the smaller the better!

Hopefully it'll be receptive to pollen from a small white bulbocodium from KB.
The Div 6 Y-OR shown above has now developed some deeper colour,

Will anyone have seed of Narcissus hedraeanthus available this season?

Sorry, Anthony, it's one I've been trying to get for ages as well. :(
Here's yet another seedling hoop in the garden - definitely not the same as the rest of the clump where it's germinated as they finished a week ago and were much smaller.
(Apologies for the poor quality of the pics - I didn't notice the dial was on the wrong setting!)

It's great to see so many unusual varieties in your garden, Fermi. I am up to my eyeballs trying to get my repotting done, and can look forward to our spring.

Hi Anne,
thanks for taking time from the re-potting to look at our daffs ;D
Here's one I got as "Tatiana x N. cyclamineus" though I wonder if it was meant to be "Titania"?

 Cannot find any registration of Tatiana as a daffodil name, Fermi, so almost certainly the Titania is the  6WW  from hybridiser   J. Lionel Richardson and  registered in Ireland in 1958. (There are three other Tiania registered, different sections)
