There were other entries of course:
                         
Gladiolus communis ssp. byzantinus                   
Allium Early Emperor       
Hermodactylus tuberosus                               
Oxalis rubra Pink Diamond 1
And a few pics of nice Muscari:

Muscari Marleen                                     
Muscari Marleen cl                                 
Muscari Maxabel                 
Luit van Delft, right in the heart of the beautiful flowerbulb district, Noordwijkerhout, Holland.

Sadly Luit died on 14th October 2016 - happily we can still enjoy his posts to the Forum

Super, as usual, Luit.  I like the look of Muscari Maxabel - is it available yet?

Narcissus Dallas and Lamlash catch my eye,as does the double Santa Claus... trying so hard to be a double Trillium or a Gardenia!

The light playing on the Gladiolus is stunning.
What a treat to share these shows, Luit..... we are ever grateful to you..... even if it can make us a little envious!!

The light playing on the Gladiolus is stunning.

I noticed them right away when I entered the hall, just because of the combination of flowers and the light Maggi, but had to pass the many other flowers before I got to them to make a picture  :D :D

The Muscari are both very fine, and I like ALL the Narcissus vars. I wonder why that surprises me? ;D

Luit, it is wonderful to return to your thread on Lisse Flower Show and see so many wonderful bulbs in flower rejoicing in Spring.  Like Anne I admire the presentation of the flowers and the immense care taken to show perfection in each and every one.  Thank you for all the time taken to show us these delights  :D

Hello Brian and John, I showed Muscari Maxabel and I can tell  that it will be available about two years

We are the only grower and I got it from a lady Joy Bishop and she named it after her grandchildren,
Maxim and anabel (I hope I wrote the names right)
