    Thanks a lot! I thought no. 1 looked like a daffodil, though it's much smaller than what I have seen here in the UK and also most of the daffodils died a few months ago. Is it some special small, late flowering veriaty?

    The daffodil is one of the many so-called "rock garden" narcissus, smaller in stature and often with very cute little flowers.

    Re the Daffodil in picture 1. There are now lots of the small multi headed ones around, so cannot guess the name; I agree with you, if it is a recent photo,it is exceptionally late to flower.
    Check Narcissus jonquilla Baby Moon, this flowers in May.
