NARCISSUS POETICUS PRAECOX

(13)  Early Pheasant Eye daffodil. 
This is the early flowering form of poeticus recurvus.. It is strongly scented. The snow-white petals with a tiny yellow cup edged with red. It was this red colouring that gave rise to all the colour in subsequent daffodil hybrids. Can be naturalised under trees but it will be shy to flower if it is too dry.

NARCISSUS WILKOMII

(Division 13).  A tiny species daffpodil with up to three tiny golden-yellow, strongly scented flowers. It needs a dry summer dormancy to flower so is best grown in an Alpine house.
