Narcissus ‘Hatsuyuki’. It’s one of the largest flower hoops I have :)

The third picture: a pot in the middle is N. cantabricus var. foliosus as posted yesterday, right is ‘Hatsuyuki’ and left is ‘Shirayukihime’.

My hand pollinated hybrid seeds from crossed with either side of the picture are now listed on the 69th SEED DISTRIBUTION as “2812 ‘Shirayukihime x Hatsuyuki' cantab/rom hybrid;)

Hoping you get some of them, Fermi! Good luck :)
I'm trying another pairing by using stored pollen from N. cantabricus var. petunioides with these flowers this season.

Narcissus ‘Lima's Green Goddess’ :) Its florets fade paler and become icy as the day go on.

And I noticed a kind of propitious sign :)

Just a few flowers out here.

First, one form of N. romieuxii mesatlanticus is just going over but I wanted to show you the size of the bloom!
Also, N. r. 'Hat', new from Rob Potterton this year and a good, almost petunioid form.
N. 'Lemon Flare' from Brian Duncan via Anne W - had to have this one after seeing Anne's photos last spring.
Also from Brian via Anne is Narcissus BD 03/53 - a hybrid between a Moroccan bulbocodium and hedraeanthus - clearly it's character owes more to the former, but the colour and perhaps that fluted/ruffled corona hints at an influence from the latter?

Hi Matt. Narcissus season has just arrived your bulb house :)
Your large flower one is interesting. Is it your own seedling?
Perhaps N. BD 03/53 has inherited its blooming season from hedraeanthus. N. bulbocodium are usually late bloomers I think.
I'll ask 'Lemon Flare' to Anne next summer :P

Narcissus romieuxii subsp. albidus var. zaianicus ‘Taiyo’  “taiyo” means “the sun” in Japanese.

I'm still not sure whether I should use “albidus”. According to a nursery owner I obtained this plant it’s an intense yellow form selected from zaianicus seedlings.
