Super thread all, great to see so much variety, David, love your Narcissus portraits.
Hristo passed away, after a long illness, on 11th November 2018. His support of SRGC was  much appreciated.

Can anyone confirm if this Narcissus fits with straight N.cyclamineus?
I wonder. The flower looks right - similar to mine. But Blanchard describes the leaves as "spreading" which is the case with my plant. However, my plant is the only form I've seen & I don't know how much the species varies in this respect.
Gerry passed away  at home  on 25th February 2021 - his posts are  left  in the  forum in memory of him.
His was a long life - lived well.

We have cyclamineus in many forms from seed, mostly.... if the rain stops tomorrow I'll go investigate them!

Narcissus hispanicus ssp longispathus - I have only seen this at Brian Duncan's. Very nice! Yellow N. bulbocodiums baffle me as much as single mark snowdrops.

Here's another of Brian Duncan's "babies" a seedling bulbocodium and Brian's notes that accompanied the bulbs said "may have some hedreanthus blood in it"

David,
It looks like the n. hedraeanthus pollen didn't take or had little influence. Sorry about that.

Rafa, that lusus is amazing.

Also lovely Mitzy and Mite, those miniature cyclamineus hybrids are definately my fav narcissus, of course along with the hoops.
Great pics guys, keep them coming.
My first hoops are starting to come up now, here in Dunners
