  1. Hi Steve,
     
    It will be interesting to follow this comment up with some observation. I have often reported three blooming times for my N cyclamineus, each a fortnight apart. Each blooming time though has a distinctive form of the species. The earlier ones are often micro mini, the second lot have quite fimbriated mouths to the corona and the third lot are a more classic show form.
     
    It is pleasing to see you critical of the form of some of your miniature seedlings. Good form has taken a long time to come in the minis and so often we are so proud of the fact that we have actually achieved a miniature seedling that we forget the importance of form. By the same token they are often an improvement on what we already have.
