Steve,

Love those yellow daffodils. I need some more yellow to accent all the white tazetta types I have. I have some St Keverne that have been coming back for about 10 years, but they never made a nice clump like yours--mine are just a row of individuals . I must make a note to plant them as clumps the next time.

Your Red Devon are heavenly---gotta put those on my list!

I planted some N. Golden Spur and Kedron this year. They were planted late, but have sprouts.

Thanks so much for that list of hardy hyacinth cultivers Chris. I couldn't find any info when I searched. Now I have a starting point ^_^

my FIRST in Las Vegas for 2009~!

Wonderful fernman23! The bloom wave is moving north! There are crocii sightings in CO. The migration of the spring bulbous blooms is well underway.

Wow, Chris, thank you. I've never known that research was compiled. What a great list. The research continues!
