Golden Cup?

As promised yesterday here is another golden corona, not a trumpet! In fact Narcissus wilkommii , pictured today has a cup-shaped corona. A member of the group of narcissus known as Jonquils, it has up to three strongly scented flowers per stem and is characterised by the long straight tube behind the flower, clearly visible above.

An early morning blip, grabbed as I dashed off to work at 730am ... with Jacinta's car keys in my pocket :-( 10 miles down the road the call came in, too late for me to get back in time. Thank goodness for kindly neighbours - Amy did get to school in time for the coach trip today!
