Beautiful portraits of the plant in nature, Rafa, thank you.

Your posts have been missed, Rafa. So nice to see your pictures of these gorgeous plants. Are all these photographs from the same location?

I had an idea to make a botanising trip to Spain next spring, and seeing your images of so many Narcissus under glorious blue skies and sunshine strengthens by resolve.

Just wanted to say how much over the years I've enjoyed your photos of the plants in the wild, Rafa.

Thank you Maggy!
I'm glad you enjoy them Mark, my pleasure.
Mark they are all almost made in the same area. N. assoanus in Cabra, Córdoba, and the rest in Andujar, Jaén.

Lovely pics Rafa
I'm sure that you already explained it before but I can't find it (the search engine is a bit weird) : what is the difference between assoanus and jonquilla except the number of flowers (1-2 for assoanus; 2-5 for jonquilla). I remember a picture with flower of gaditianus, jonquilla and ?? but can't find it again.
