In previous years I mixed tiny 'Tete 'a' Tete' daffodils with the tulips I forced in the urns, but they never seemed to bloom together, so now I just put tulips. When I emptied the urns in seasons past, I saved the 'Tete 'a' Tete' daffodils and planted them in the border garden. Each year they seem to put out more blooms. The muscari foliage looks pretty ragged after a rough winter.

It's a variety I really like, though it's short stature restricts where it will work. Two years ago I was in Paris in mid-March and was thrilled to see the variety used in window boxes, urns and as a border in massive park plantings.
