Some daffodils from the Jasmine Collection  Sweetness  What a wonderful collection you have Jasmine. I love the delicate look and the name of this one. Does it smell lovely too? I have some like it that smell devine, I wonder if mine are sweetness too, mine were part of a mixed packet.  |

Lovely, I was out in the garden just now and the scents from the Daffs are amazing in the sunshine. This as you know is my 1st year with them and I'm so pleased to find so many scented. ;D

Thanks for the noms on the old fashioned one  This is double cheerfulness and it has a lovely scent.  I've enjoyed the scent of them all more this year because we have had some dry sunny weather which seems to help! Forgot what these are, but they also smell devine  The little Rip Van Winkles don't seem to have any scent at all but they look pretty in a container  x Tig |

I'll have to put double cheerfulness on my list of what I'd like to have. The more I see of all your lovely pics the more I want.  Tig that support looks good and I too think your Container is a grand job. |

Thanks Jas, I've had them in there for years now, they keep on multiplying  LG that support (and the two others I bought) were only 79p each in Home & Bargain - I thought they would hold some of the taller plants up later on, like the Gaura! x Tig |

I love the ones with the contrasting cups The display I have had from the 'loose mixed' bulbs I bought from the greengrocers for 69p a lb has been excellent. These are just a couple of shots of them  even scented ones  and these were reduced last year Triandus Thalia - all have multiple flowers per stem  I'm deadheading daily to stop them putting effort into making seed and hopefully perform brilliantly again next year x Tig |

Oh yes...dead heading....
Your 69p a lb display had a pretty selection in it Tig.

What a lovely selection Tig, they're a real bargain, lucky you. I'm deadly with the dead heading. I really want all mine back next year they've been a real treasure. I've been round with a feed as well. |

It doesn't look deep enough yellow for Baby Moon Jilly, but that could be because the sun was on them. Are the nicely scented?

Those are actually one of my old favourites Tig although I love especiall all of them with those 2 colours. Loverly photos Jas,think this one is worth a  Where abouts in Cornwall is it?  I used to have so many of these in the garden as well - infact I seem to have so few Daffs this year...I haven't even got any leaves. RF |

I love daffodils but some of the blooms are so heavy especially when it rains.

Here's my last ones, I've been so happy with ones from the 99p shop, even if they were a bit mixed up. Has anyone got any idea of the name of the ones in the top pic, they're so tiny & delicate they're dwarfed by the forget me nots i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd161/GWDAdmin1/Smilies/Default/smiley.gif .  The back garden is a lot more shaded than the front, so the Daffs are holding on for longer there, these were in a mixed pot that I've had for years & I luckily moved them just in time because the pot was full of vine weevil.

They're all just lovely. Some of mine are holding on as well I'm happy to say but the most of them are over now.

Thanks Tig. Mrs B is one of my favourites. It is the oldest of the pink daffodils. I think it has more of an apricot trumpet than pink though but what do I know ;D

Tig that support looks good and I too think your Container is a grand job.
