Always the teacher Anthony.

Why do I get the impression that's not a compliment Mark? ::)

Just as late as the viridiflorus parent -
here is Narcissus x alleniae, the natural hybrid between Narcissus viridiflorus and N. miniatus.
This clone is very near to viridiflorus - there are also some around which are similar to miniatus.

Would there be anyone who grows Narcissus elegans x Narissus serotinus (not N. miniatus), I would like to get a couple of bulbs of this hybrid....

Fine plant, Rafa. Looked for the translation of ochroleucus - it was
pale yellow (and it is)!

Sorry Rafa, Didn't note the shape initially. Unfortunately I can't compare
your plant with 'normal' N. tazetta.
Indeed the corona looks very similar to those of a tazetta-serotinus (miniatus) hybrid - received from Oron - see picture!
Is your plant fertile?
