Hi
Maggie, the temperature range outside is 2 to 18 degrees Celsius. It is going to be 19 on Sunday and 20 next Wednesday. Temperatures here are not that much different to where Fermi lives or Launceston Tasmania. Inside it is a comfortable 22 degrees all the time.
We had a wet late autumn and that has not done anything for the miniatures. Flowering of miniatures is down compared to normal. They do better when it is hot and dry.

A few daffs in the garden:
'Splatter'
'Hillview Triquill' from Marcus Harvey
'Bell Song'
'Porth Chapel' Not sure what this is now, after checking Daffseek! It might be 'Kinglet' which I'll post later!
And amongst the pots I have that bulbocodium hybrid from Keira Bulbs which has produced some strange, starry flowers compared to its earlier ones; any comments, Graham?
cheers

Hi
Anthony, we get short stems on our daffodils when we plant them out very late.
I will start off with some jonquilla hybrids. These are all miniature and not one of them is all yellow!
