Tazetta time

If all goes as planned, this room (above) will soon be filled with these (below, sorry for the fuzzy pic). Erlicheer is my tazetta of choiceeach stem produces a small bouquet of mildly scented white flowers.


As Ive posted before, the commonly sold Ziva has become synonymous with paperwhites (narcissus tazetta cultivars) and, for many, has created the impression that all these flowers have a strong an d (to many) unpleasant scent. And that they all have single white flowers. Its kind of nutslike assuming all roses look and smell the same. Unfortunately, Ive never seen any other kind of tazetta other than Ziva in the big box stores. It seems like more people would buy more bulbs if they knew there were better choicesdoesnt it?
