Description
(syn Narcissus bicolor)
A distinct bicoloured species with soft yellow petals contrasted with deep, dark yellow trumpets, which are notable for being straight-sided and not flared in any way.
This lack of flare makes it look as if the trumpet has been cut across the mouth (abscised) with pinking shears.
A hardy, late flowering, mountain plant raised from a collection originally made near Gavarnie in the French Pyrenees.
Current naming seems to favour the name bicolor for this species, no doubt it will change again in a few years, so we are leaving our headline name unchanged for now!
