Spring flowering Narcissus 2012 - 2013

They're really just to show the nice variations you can get if you hybridise things yourself.

Nice plants Anne

Gerd some nice hedraeanthus . The first one of these  I got turned out to be something else but am now trying again with a tiny bit from a reputable source so one day ........................

I also noticed differences according flowering related with the provenance of the species. The ' Cazorla type ' is best.

That's indeed, Gert Lovely tiny flowers, you grow!

I think so, too, Anne. Your nice pics show us that 'selecting "something particular" flowers as parents' is essential

Gerry, The fingers are to make them look in the direction of the camera, or isolate from pot-mates. However, if they were to  be subjected to wind, they would fall over.

This is Narcissus x neocarpetanus a natural hybrid between Narcissus cantabricus and Narcissus bublcodium subsp. nivalis

[Mark Griffiths]

Rafa, that's lovely.

A couple from me - both supposedly N. romieuxii rifanus from AGS seed - one is alot more yellow than the other. I'd be interested in opinions about what they actually are.

Hello Arnold. I think the flowers are average size.
The pot is only 7.5cm (3″) in diameter so it creates an optical illusion of size
