Ooohh, lots of lovelies there Donna! I've always wanted to try Lilium candidum, so pure and simple and perfect! I saw a pic years ago of them arising from clouds of blue flax, and I've never gotten over it- must try some this fall! W.P.Milner is such a sweet, soft Daff. Mine need to be moved, a spruce is eating the space where they're planted. Chionodoxa sardensis is another I've had my eye on, that shade of blue looks gorgeous. Ornithogalum nutans looks like a great one to combine with almost anything- I meant to get some last fall and spaced.

The tulips and little blue bulbs were out of genuine aesthetic need, but the Daffs were simply to feed my collector "need" LOL. I'm anxious to see a lot of those planted in 2013 this spring- the 2nd year is so much better for Daffs and little blue bulbs that increase quickly. I'm already seeing Scilla siberica seedlings germinating out there- I love that they increase through seed as well as bulb offsets!
