Yes, they are in a glasshouse. Same conditions as for south Iberian/Moroccan daffodils - totally dry in summer.

I have it on good authority that while Fred's camera did a sneezing fit last month, it is now in the rudest of health... as can be amply  demonstrated by his photographs...... ;D ;D ;)

 Sorry, couldn't help myself !!!
