These large daffodils regularly come up strongly. My plans seem to be silent on what variety they are.

Sarcococca and snowdrops
Nice to have something in flower at this time of year. The sarcococca is said to be scented, but I don’t get it. I’ve now got some nice clumps of snow drops front and back.
Repot lifted tulips
I’d kept quite a lot of rather small tulip bulbs after lifting them in spring. I planted ‘Don Quichotte’ and ‘Sorbet’ in pots on their own, and ‘Monte Carlo’, ‘Helmar’ and miscellaneous lily flowered tulips in a big bowl. Unless they do surprisingly well I won’t bother to keep tulips after the first year in future.
Bulb lasagne
I planted a 30cm wide terracotta pot with Iris reticulata ‘Purple Hill’ at the top, Narcissus WP Milner in the middle and Tulipa ‘Merlot’ at the bottom.
