1. Narcissus cavanillesii - a late und quite large flower
2. Narcissus x perezlarae - the bigger und more floriferous type
3. Narcisus x xanthochlorus - an artificial cross (with cavanillesii as mother)

very nice Gerd!

Can you tell me the regime of watering? I started 1th of september but how many times do you water and how much?
I see you have allready much more in flower than i have. I read they are overflooted so they can have/NEED?? a lot of water during growing season.
I grow them in the same frame as Crocus and crocus are much more advanced allready

Ruben, in my 7x7X10 and 10x10x14 pots i water them twice a week those last weeks, this until november. then i reduce to one watering, one feeding this until december.
I've found serotinus in lagunas very wet, bulbs under water.....with a lot of wind. If grown underglass your must ventilate a lot to reproduce the climate.

Once again, thanks for kind remarks!

@Luc:  This is Narcissus obsoletus (miniatus). For Narcissus serotinus s. str. (sensu stricto- in the narrow sense) please have a look at Rafas pics of October 7 th. You can see the yellow corona and the typical form and colour of the tube.

Ruben,  I always start in the first two weeks of september, after a drop in temperatures. At first I give plenty of water (Ian's September storm) because I know that the beginning of growth (flowering) is triggerd by decreasing temperatures and moisture. After that I have a similar watering regime as Yann has.
Although I sometimes found daffodils in very wet situations I believe they don't like too much water during their whole growing season.
Generally a good 'baking' during the resting periode seems to be essential for a quick start. I received a bulb from Israel (where a good baking is given naturally) and this specimen flowers ahead of all others - see my contribution of  September 24th. Bulbs which were stored only 2 months instead of 3 (25 ° C) begun their growth more than a week later than the others after first watering.

The forcast says dull, humid and lower temperature days will continue more than a week here :( It's very unusual for this time of year.
