Re: Today in the Garden


VE/JS lists it in their species miniatures.  It's called Narcissus albus
plenus odoratus.  The blurb says it is often called Double Pheasant's Eye,
but you really can't see the cup as clearly as on a true Pheasant's Eye and
the two aren't closely realated other than being in the same genus.  It's an
1861 heirloom, fragrant and late flowering, 12-14 inches.  They are sold out
on it for the year.
