I find the putative 'Lesley's Delight' quite attractive - must get more sleep.

 Actually, are most two-tone doubles not also split-cups?

Hi
First a warning!
Lesley I am not sure you should look at this post as it is graphic in terms of N. watieri and split cup breeding!
I hope everyone else enjoys the photos! It includes our first truly miniature multi-headed split cup!! 8) 8)

Does that mean I have to see if Dave's Delight is available as a name?

Hi
I am surprised no one took me to task over the name for the last photo of the preceding post. It is of course N. hedreanthus ssp luteolentus.
A few miniatures including a miniature split cup tazetta!! 8) 8)

Did you perhaps mean N. cantabricus subsp. luteolentus ?  Now preferred, I believe as N. x blancoi ?

While we are best know for our miniatures we dabble in standard jonquilla hybrids because it is closely associated with our miniature hybridising program. The only colour combination that we don't have fertile jonquilla hybrids is Y-R.

Maggie, we are obviously several name changes behind. I don't think I am going to attempt to change all our labels on our daffodils.

Quite so, one's head can spin ..... http://www.srgc.net/forum/index.php?topic=6855.msg185831#msg185831

At least we're safe enough with it being a narcissus!
