These are autumn flowering Narcissus serotinus and N. elegans -
both originally from Spain
Gerd

Delightful! Thanks Gerd.
-
Are they scented?
-
Thanks for compliments!
N. serotinus has a nice scent - the other one not (at least not at a temperature of + 10 ° Celsius this morning).

another serotinus, liliput one from seeds i collected near near Aktounta, GR in very warm january 2015 as well as i can remind.
First flowers this year, it's smell so strong that the suave perfum is all around the house.
-
First viridiflorus of the season, very tiny form.
-
These are
Narcissus deficiens (miniatus) in an orange tone
in a yellowish tone (colour not true reproduced here) + see extra petals!
and with a 'normal' deficiens for comparison

Each one has its own charm, Gerd!

Thank you Maggi!

I am finding it difficult to follow the various names for the autumn-flowerers.
I received this as N. serotinus, but it may be N. obsoletus. Any comments please!

Without any doubt not Narcissus serotinus L. - Spanish specialists call it deficiens (miniatus) now - I am in the process of to become accustomed to this.

Ha! ;D ;D
What should I put on the label - N. deficiens? I am seriously considering putting several labels in each pot, each with a different name. Hopefully one will be correct!

Anne, you are not alone. In my collection there are labels with serotinus ?, miniatus, obsoletus and deficiens in the end. All for the same species.
Without any doubt the split of Narcissus serotinus into two distinct species was overdue. The problems which arose then concerning the nomenclature are a mess. It reminds of the Babylonion language confusion.

This was non-flowering for two years and now pushes up a bloom before leaves.
Narcissus viridiflorus
-
It somehow seems very apt for Halloween. :P
-
It is a bit strange when you consider the look of most Narcissus.
-
We also have the first of this seasons Narcissus flowers opening in the sand beds with many more buds visible.

Well done Yann, a rapid result!

Can anybody help with a source of bulbs or seeds of Narcissus triandrus subsp pulchellus?
-
Well done Yann, a rapid result!
Usually serotinus/obsoletus are fast grower.

The buds of Craigton Chorister are also showing here and depending on our weather in the coming weeks it could soon be singing....

Bulbocodium flowering outside in a trough on 1st Novermber. Seed collected from garden growing plants and scattered on the trough 2-3 years ago. Parents usually flower around March. Apologies for the poor quality of the photo.

Well Ken, that IS early! Delightful surprise, for sure.
