Dear All,
It was good to get some specific Narcissus choices. Thanks Linda and thanks
everyone for all your contributions. I'm going to try to compile them all
and make a wiki page to link with the TOW page.
Most of my honorable mentions were put on the list by someone else, so I'll
just add two more that I don't think made the list. I was hoping we'd hear
from Alberto if he was able or Germán and they'd nominate some of those
South American irids. I will suggest Hesperoxiphion peruvianum which put on
such a show for me summer into fall and Spiloxene serrata and Spiloxene
capensis (the yellow flowered version I saw in South Africa but don't grow,
but hope to grow since I have a pink one and a white one.) I do have
Spiloxene serrata returning and am fond of it too.
