I recently came across Jaques Amand's rare bulb site http://www.jacquesamand.com/ and wondered if anyone purchased from him...apparently he is an British grower who sells at the Philadelphia Flower Show and elsewhere in the States...

and also David Burdick's , who offers bulbs for the collector, I think...
http://www.daffodilsandmore.com/catWY.htm

and Nancy Wilson's site, where she specializes in Miniature narcissi http://www.asis.com/~nwilson/

These sites look interesting, although I am not sure I am ready to dive in to the world of 'show' bulbs....

Ladyrowan---didn't you mention somewhere that you are acquainted with Nancy Wilson? Your part of the country is pretty serious daffodil growing territory and I bet you have really interesting resources nearby...

Also, (back to my bulb reality) does anyone know how the bulb sizes from VanEngelen compare with the bulb sizes from B & B or some of the others...they all seem to have 'bigger' bulbs, but is one supplier especially know for big handsome bulbs?

Happy gardening...t.

Hardly rare, but very cheery...a pic of my 'n. cheerfulness'...from van engelen...
