] Any Narcissus lovers here?

Thanks, Vlad!

No, I didn't know Flying Colors. Great suggestion, and just in time, as
it seems - new list end of April.

Our garden is large (3000 sqm) and open, so I need large varieties in
general, and the more subdued the colours are, the more flowers it needs
to catch the eye in the surrounding landscape. We live on a slope, and
you can enter the garden via a meadow, where many (small) feet have now
made a visible path. My long-term project is to highlight that path with
daffodils planted to its side. I assume that such a display would work
well with less showy varieties, as the eye is then hopefully caught
either by some brightly coloured varieties as "focal points", or by the
overall impression of the arrangement.

Personally, for larger Daffodils, I like white and slightly cream or
yellow coloured varieties best, so Mount Hood is already on my list. But
I have also just realized I have to reflect on my preferences in Daffs a
bit more - in pots, I would go for species or very colourful varieties.

Our poeticus do not increase so far. What I got are single flowers and,
judging from the foliage, still single bulbs. I'll watch them closely.
This year, I am just happy they are back.

Have a good weekend, everybody!

Nils
