Narcissus 'Spoirot'

A tiny gem. The flower is growing on a stem only 3" tall. The longest leaves are only 5" long. It will grow slightly taller I think. I saw it on the Caley Show 2014 photos. Billy Carruthers owner of Binny Plants won the James C. Stewart Trophy with a pot of these.
‘Spoirot’ is a hybrid between Narcissus bulbocodium subsp. bulbocodium var. conspicuus and N. cantabricus subsp. cantabricus var. foliosus raised at the Glenbrook Bulb Farm in Tasmania by Rod Barwick. ‘Spoirot’ is one of his Little Detective Series named after Agatha Christie's fictional detective Hercule Poirot.
