Just discovered this thread, Rafa ... magnificent images ... many thanks for posting.

So did I! Narcissus cantabricus is the most beautiful daff indeed - especially when growing in these quantities!

Instead of putting people in jail for minor offences, they should be made to do Community Service.  Clearing up rubbish is areas of beauty would be a good start.

Armin is not the only one with wet eyes. It makes me feel that my plants are like caged animals in a zoo.

[Luc Gilgemyn]

I don't think it would be wise to release them Ann !

Here are some of my domestic daffodils! Firstly a self sown seedling of the romieuxii type. Secondly probably the nicest small trumpet, at least out now - Candlepower. Next a seedling of pseodonarcissus eugenae which is unfortunately sterile.
The last involves a complicated story. The seed parent is a daffodil I have under the name of 'Willie Buchanan' which may be the same as 'Douglasbank'. The pollen parent was a seedling from watieri x cyclamineus which looked exactly like pure watieri, but from the result obviously did have some cyclamineus genes.
