More hoops arriving, some pots of selected seedlings that I chipped.
These are from my favourite cross of Narcissus cantabricus petunioides x romieuxii albidus SF110. Not surprising I've shortened it to MOON and a code letter!
Moon M


Moon N





Moon P



And good old Trumpet Voluntary in full flow too - the first trumpet in the greenhouse.

This little pot of seedlings flowering for the first time is getting a lot of pink labels to say I like them.

Narcissus (romieuxii?) rifanus reaches for the sky.

Maggi, am I doing it wrong? I thought the thumbnails would expand without opening in a new window.....

I'll amend your posts to do that , Anne -   after that  I'll post what the post looks like so you  know  how it's done.

Your plants always look so wonderful growing and being photographed in your strong light, not to mention your skills as a grower YT.
Thank you, Ian. You encourages me a lot. But that's not true. I only post the pictures of plants growing well ;D

I'm thinking of moving to Japan.....and taking my daffs with me  :D
...and hepaticas are waiting for you, Anne ;)

Wow!  :o  That's quite some sight!
Those I have in flower are indeed the same bulbs from you, so I will have to sit down and take a good close look at them.
Thanks for showing this pic. Lovely.

Hi Maggi, I was trying to put in an inline expandable thumbnail, but thought it would expand in the same window. The full size images look OK though, if you don't think they take up too much room on the page.

Anne make the images 750 pixels wide and they will expand in the window, if they are over 800 they open in a new window.

 edit by maggi - Ian is mistaken - even smaller sized  "inline expandable  thumbnails" will open in a new window.
The SRGC resizer works best when used for  "Inline full-size images"  when the  image is both resized and presented fully in the text of the post to be enjoyed.
