I believe this is a form of Narcissus minor. Beth Chatto's nursery has listed it sometimes. Doubtless others too, on mainland Europe.

Brian Duncan says it's N. asturiensis

John Blanchard states that he is not convinced that it should be regarded as a form of N. minor "as it is very much on the borderline with N. asturiensis". Elsewhere he suggests that the distinction between N. asturiensis & N. minor is difficult to sustain.

I'm happy to go with either species. My CM grows to about 25cms so it's a lot taller than my asturiensis, OR my minor!

in western Europe?
