    There is just about time to plant some more daffs. What are people's favourite EARLY varieties. I'm thinking about Barrett Browning. Anyone have any experience of this one or recommendations for other good early ones? Ideally I would like a variety that will naturalise well in grass.

      February Gold is worth a try. I've seen it do quite well planted in grass areas. :dbgrtmb:

          I like Tete a tete too. I have it growing in one of my borders but it is quite short. I want one that is a little taller that can cope with the grass verge and ditch edge that I intend to plant them in.
