Emcys is a very nice daffodil with a very strange name.
The name is made from this sentence:
Een Mooie CYclamineus Selectie: EMCYS

It means A Nice CYclamineus Selection

Leuk!

 I have N. 'Surfside ' from the connoisseur Collection, I think... or do I just remember sorting it into paper bags?  ;D

Yes Maggi! Don't know if you have it, but Surfside was delivered.

Jamie, surely you grow Acis (syn Leucoium/Leucojum) autumnalis? It must be very available throughout the UK and Europe?
Sad to admit it, but, no.  I've only seen it offered now and then, but would really rather raise it from seed.  I have had very poor luck with virused stock of many bulbs.  A disadvantage of living in a massive bulb-growing region.  Virus is rampant in certain types, despite the best husbandry.  It just takes a few rabid aphids to spoil your day.

Seeds are more fun, anyway!  ;D

Hi Lesley,
yes some of our Acis autumnalis are in flower now
263834-0

it's just a matter of catching the seed before it drops!

Luit,
It's nice to see Narcissus "Kholmes" over there as it is one of Rod Barwick's "Detective Series" of Hybrid Hoop Petticoat daffs (others include "Orcleuse", "Smarple", "Mitimoto", "Kojak" and "Sporoit") raised in Tasmania.
cheers

Thank you for your explanation, Luit. It reminds me of the Galanthus named 'Nothing Special". Except the daffodil is nice.

Thanks yet again Luit. Who says spring hasn't arrived in the NH?

I like 'Spot On' but LOVE 'Sheila Ann Germaney' perhaps because she does so very well for me. Her colouring is so clean and delicate.

 Is that from the Bulbs donated to the DWE by Luit and Cees Breed from the Connoisseur Collection, Christine?
I noticed Art had some crocus in flower from that... we should have a special thread to show our bulbs from the C. Collection   :)
