fermi de Sousa:
Could it possibly be "The sea daffodil" Chlidanthus?

 Anne --sorry for the delay in replying.I did have a thought prior to opening this post that it might be a Narcissus sps.but was put off that ,so to speak, by the timing of the flowering as Lesley has pointed out.

I used to have Chlidanthus fragrans Fermi ,however don't remember it looking like that,more trumpet like.

Susan --actually i think it can sing because when i walked passed it a couple of days ago i swear i heard the following appropriate lyrics wafting through the air-- "he's being led a merry tune" --followed by --"I'm leading him up the garden path".Smile.

Our Alpine Garden Club has a field trip planned for Saturday, so won't have time until Sunday to have another peek.

Thanks for all the comments so far.

Cheers Dave.

Hans J:
Hi ,
Here is a picture from Clidanthus fragrans- this is really a other plant.
Best wishes
Hans

 I confine my wee drams to Friday nights generally Susan, though I recently discovered lemoncello which is nice in the late afternoon.

Dave, whatever it is, it looks like a double form of a normally single flower. Where did you get it? Is it one of your (many?) acquisitions from TradeMe? Remember that the Consumer Guarantees Act applies. Or have you been messing with your computer and generated something for us all to worry about? As in Christopher Robin's sneezles and weasles which vanished overnight and his comment next morning was ..."now how to amuse them today." Like the stories you've been spreading around of those giant icebergs. What rot!

t00lie:
Lesley.Not a Trademe purchase.I haven't had a spendup on that website for a while now.As a result i'd expect their profits will be down significently this quarter . :D

Foliage/flowers have no scent.Will dig up a bulb this weekend .

I was watching Shrek on TV.(the infamous sheep who was rounded up a couple of years ago from the wild so to speak after many ,many years of freedom in Central Otago.--'Two Ton' i call him because of the weight his fleece must have been when they finally sheared him!!!).Well his owner and the NZ Wool Board ? had flown him out on to an iceberg to be sheared again as part of an advertisement campaign.The chap being interviewed commented they had just landed and unloaded ,(i saw two helicopters in the wider shot),when there was an almighty crash as a large slice of rotten ice departed off the side of the berg.
So i'd have to agree with you when you talk above about there being rot. ::)
