    Oh, my, you've got a big selection of narcissi! I love the frilly ones, and the double ones, and the clear colour of that yellow there *pointing*. That white one looks so clean and fresh. Wish I could see them in RL.

    "The shy Jonquil" - that's cute daisybeans!
    Droopy-I have to admit...they weren't all from my garden. 2 were snapped from someones backyard and 2 were snapped at work. But one day I'll have them all! :D

    They are just lovely. I love that first one I think the most, but only by a slim margin. :) Are they all scented??

    so any differant varieties. Don't think I even knew they came in doubles but how pretty. I like the 5th one up from the bottom but its hard to just pick one.

    Those blooms are so pretty, Netty. There is nothing like Narcissus to usher in spring.
