Narcissus jonquilla var. henriquesii

This has responded well to a very hot dry bake last summer.

Very nice Arnold. How do you grow this? I find it impossible to keep going.

Gerry:

Not sure which one you refer to , but they are growing side by side.  I have them growing in a commercial potting mix with 25% play sand.  The greenhouse is kept around 43-48F.  Good sunlight from 11 AM to sunset. First year I have them so time will tell if they return.

Dear all,


 I came across with some daffodils today while i visit a friend of mine  and i could pick those for post in the forum in order to identify ( according to her knowledge they came from England)

 First photo 0668_2 dafodil  has another 2 small flowers just below the higher one,
