Narcissus viridiflorus flowers well and produces many offsets for me. Started with 2 in 2011, gave half a dozen away last year, and still have over a dozen left! Only ever got one seed!

J'ai fait une auto-fécondation avec le pinceau de peintre.

Ian has almost more paint brushes for pollinating   flowers than he does for painting! Useful things!

Oui, ce n'est pas encore gagné, il faut que la gousse de graines soit fertile, qu'il n'y ai pas d'accident et que la graine soit bien semée aussi.
Bref, je m'avance un peu vite ...  ::)

I did a self-fertilization with the paintbrush.

Yes, it is not yet won, it is necessary that the seed pod is fertile, there was no accident and that the seed is sown as well.
In short, I walk a little faster ...

Of course, success is never a sure thing - but always a good idea to try.  :)

Tried paint brushes and cocktail sticks, but no joy. I have more clones now, so will try again.

The pod is dead, remains the second with three flowers now.
