Thanks Brian. I'm not sure which kind Forest Purple is as I haven't looked it up yet.
I've a relative of the Primula Black Lace.... Elizabeth Killelay. Both are beauties.
I'm so enjoying these little tours of your alpine houses. If only!!!!

Superb show Brian(and part 1).My peony is looking very healthy.Also,I have the first seedling showing from the seeds you sent, sown on 6th sep 2011 and kept out in all weather.I also have a full pot of N.cyclamineus seedlings,I assume those are the parents,as well as various Cyclamen and some others.

Phil today is the first day for weeks that the temperature has been high enough to germinate anything here.
So i would say you are ahead of me as nothing of any note has yet shown .
hope that should read 6th sept 2012 !
yes your N.Cyclamineus were from the ones shown.

I've got 2011 on label but you could be right.I can't remember when you sent them.I may have dated the label on the plant so will check.I have a few things germinated in the cold from the A.G.S. and Witton Lane Seeds,plus your Narcissus and peony.Also your seed of Narcissus rupicola is doing well.

Didn't realise that peony seeds take that long to germinate! Lovely photos Brian you're so lucky to have a plant house like this to grow so many beautiful plants in.
