Here's Narcissus cyclamineus hybrid 'Jumblie'
Alec Gray who raised it in 1952 relates that after World War 2 an unusual year occurred when seed was set on many bulbs which normally are completely sterile. He noticed that just one seed capsule had developed on a stem of 'Cyclataz' and when gathered, contained three seeds. These ultimately developed into three excellent bulbs - 'Jumblie', 'Quince' and 'Tete a Tete'
That was some seed pod!
The flowers do have a jumbled air, as they crowd the top of the stem
my Jumblie was labelled wrong at the local garden centre. Great to see what it should look like
I remember it was in flower when was with you last and I was convinced then it was Tete a Tete
Still, they're brothers/sisters :)
Spose you'd like some of these as well as the muscari Blue Spike then?
