The little short and fat one I posted above came as seed from AGS I think, as N. cordubensis but I knew that wasn't right. ??? It has 9 petals Graham and did last year too so appears to be consistent.

Lesley's Star is very nice - quietly elegant, like Lesley, I'm sure.
Graham, your pot full of 1W-W is very cute!

Here is another starry one which came up in a pot of Lilium seedlings.  Just the 6 petals here. The lilies came up as well fortunately.  :)

Hi
We have lots of starry miniatures but they are not regarded as exhibition quality so I don't take photos of them. I just keep them for breeding.
Melager we grow our daffodils in Canberra. We have lots of miniatures and intermediates. We have large daffodils as well but tend to use them for breeding with our miniatures.
I will start with some species.

Some intermediates, including some that are only just too big for miniature.

Some stunners there Graham. I love your apodanthe hybrids, the one with the greenish tinge and your exhibition form of N. watieri. Super plants. Afraid I'm with Lesley on the splits though. ;)

Hi
Last for the evening.
Matt, good splits are amazing but bad ones are usually only for the garden but it is the same for most daffodils.
We have quite a few very good apodanthe hybrids. I have done some today and will do more over the coming week. We have so many we actually get open pollinated apodanthe.
The little miniature tazetta is quite a flower. Suspect it came from GBF.

Hi
I should have added that the miniature Div 7's are probably the breeding highlights. The pink is very good and the one with the greenish tinge is something special.
