Never before have I see a photo of a mass bloom of Narcissus papyraceus in its native/natural habitat. Wonderful! Thank you for sharing your photos of your outings with us, Uli. Regards, Mike Western Washington where we've had record setting precipitation this winter - I wish some of it had fallen on our long suffering ,precipitation deprived souls in southern Oregon and California. Clivia miniata (protected from frost) are in mid-bloom here.
