Nothing comparing Oron's pics, just two narcissus. second one received as var. orcholeucus, but I can't distinguish any character from the classic form.

Oron - fabulous photos  8) 8) - such hybrid populations are just awesome!!

I think that whilst you are absolutely right that both species have acted as pollen plants and that the names can be written as you have done, it is perhaps more normal to include all of the hybrid swarm under a single name with the form Narcissus x "specific epithet". Sorry, I don't know what your crosses are formally called, but another illustrative wild example from Spain is: Narcissus x christopheri which includes both N pannizzianus x N assoanus and N assoanus x N pannizzianus.

I would be really interested to hear whether these are fertile.....

Dave,

Thank you for your comment.
I tend to agree with you that all types of this hybrids should be grouped under one name.

Despite being a wild form, to my knowledge it was never described in literature, and therefor was never given a name, so far...
I grow this hybrid for the last 5 years and it never set seeds, but as conditions in my garden are quite different to the ones in its natural habitat i will go there to check it soon.

Hans,
N. tazetta has two varieties in Israel: an autumn one flowering in November and another one that blooms in spring Febuary-April.
