Paul,

.  All my previous efforts rotted during Summer or Autumn.

.
Jamie,
Try keeping them dry and warm in summer - especially if they are Autumn bloomers. No water from the time the leaves dry off.

The front -on min poeticus sdl
Paul,
Just catching up on Forum after a few weeks away.
I think you might have something really special with your little poet, especially if it stays at 35mm - could be a real potent breeder for adding colour to a range of miniatures! Any spare bulbs to sell?
Did we meet in Tasmania  - or was it Perth, or both?

I found this pot today, of seedlings from N. 'Gambus.' Two have a little influence from N. cyclamineus and the third, has 9 sepals (tepals?) instead of the normal 6. I think I quite like it but it may not be consistent year to year. The little one is really tiny (smaller than in the picture) the corona just 1.5cms long. I hope it remains small next year and so will be perfect for a trough or small pot.

Ross, how tall is Josie, in real life? I find the official description of 'less than 32.5cm' very frustrating when looking up new varieties. It could mean anything from a pretty normal sized daffodil to one of Graham's tinies.  ::)
