Here's my version of N. cantabricus subsp. cantabricus var. eu-albidus.

It is listed as above on the Daffseek page with an image from B. Duncan.

Not sure why the hyphenation of the eu-albidus.

Also a N. bulbocodium from Morocco

I like both the N eualbidus VERY much! If anyone should have spare seeds at any time I'd be glad to buy or swap for them.

Seems to be a small beauty - for some reason I do prefer tazetta form of Narcissus flower to bulbocodium shaped.

Just done a bit of research on that one Arnold. There is a "minutus" listed in the RHS publication 'Botanical names in the genus Narcissus updated September 2008' as an invalid name stemming from Mike Salmon's Monocot Nursery Plant List 1994/5. Pretty little thing though whatever it's called.

David:

It probably came from Mike Salmon.  The person who gave it to me was a regular customer of Mike's.  Thanks,

It was listed by Jim Archibald:

693.850 : NARCISSUS ASSOANUS (Michael Salmon's "var. minutus") Teruel, Ejidre, Travesa. Ex JWB 87-15 (A dwarfer, variant with a very small corona, which looks rather like N. gaditanus but is much easier to flower well.)

That's very early Arnold.
