Really sweet.  I've got some similar but they're not open yet.

I'm a bit jealous that my neighbours have daffs flowering, but not us. And we get more sun. :(

I spotted some of those minature daffs in someones garden yesterday and thought they were so cute.  I haven't seen daffs that small before.

I grow the little ones here, they seem to flower a lot earlier than the bigger types - have been really good value as this must be the third or fourth year and they seem to be going from strength to strength.

Think some of the miniature daffs I have are called  Narcissus bulbicodium which has a teeny trumpet but hardly any petals, some are Minnow which has white petals and some are Rip van Winkle, which is sort of fluffy, hard to describe. Tete a tete are lovely too, but are bigger than these others and do come a bit later in my garden.
