Wow, that's a bit floriferous Fermi :o and obviously Errol hasn't been gardening for you lately.
I really like 'Silver Chimes' too & think most hybrids involving triandrus are worth space.

Ashley, Errol has been busy "gardening" in other, more "anty" parts of the garden ;D
'Wubwub' is probably the best performing of Lawrence's "hoops" which I grow.
I didn't realise that 'Silver Chimes' had N. triandrus in it's breeding, but unfortunately (as far as I know) they result in "mules" so you can't use them for further breeding. I think Lawrence (or possibly Graham Fleming) told me that he was working on breeding fertile triandrus hybrids but I don't know if that has been achieved,
cheers

fermi de Sousa:
This is a strange looking standard 2 YO called 'Modern Art'.
The cup is so cut and frilled it appears to be a double!

Narcissus viridiflorus in flower today for the first time.
It has a most peculiar lemony like scent, never smelled anything like it before.
