Narcissus

Jim:

I'm not familiar with a Narcissus moschatus type. The most unusual
narcissus was one that the Flora of Louisiana calls Narcissus juncifolius.
The foliage did indeed look very similar to a large juncus.

I've long dreamed of doing something like that myself - and with a specific
goal in mind. You didn't mention them, but did you see or collect any
Narcissus moschatus types, the so-called Silver Bells types?

If so, I'll bet you'll have a line forming when and if you offer them.

this morning thanks to a stiff frost.
