Daffodils

The Poet or Pheasant Eye daffs are late flowers and smell fantastic. They tend to be mainly white though.

I love daffs as they herald spring but I do get frustrated with the leaves that hang around forever, especially when I am waiting to plant my bedding plants in the same pot.

I just love daffodils they are so bright and cheerful in the garden and on roadside verges. The sight of them reminds me that spring really is here. Love all the different varieties, I tend to plant those in pots, clearly labelled, but try as I might, they always get mixed up when I plant them out in the garden when they’ve finished flowering. I always grow a few February Gold, to remind me of my Dad, whose birthday fell during those “dreary grey days” (his words).

If you look at all the varieties, you can get daffodils to flower from say December through to June. So a long season if you buy all the right varieties.

I love daffodils. I buy bunches every week from the supermarket.

I am a self-confessed uselessness in the garden loath it, hate it BUT I LOVE MY DAFFS in 2 vases in my kitchen....

We have lots of tete-a-tete dwarf daffodils in our garden They are beautiful.

Rip van Winkle is currently the star in our garden.

Because of winds I prefer the dwarf varieties. They radiate sunshine, just what we need after winter.

I love daffodils,but only this week i found out i am allergic to them.
Whilst doing some gardening i touched some and blisters appeared very quickly and is very painfull.
Note to self,let them grow but keep away.

I love Daffodils and try to grow different varieties each year.
My favourite this year are Kedron , yellow petals with a petite orange centre.
I wish they lasted longer, but at least with the calm, warm weather right now they are looking splendid.

I live by a castle and everyone waits for the daffodils to come out as they herald warmer weather.

Gosh, ours have just bloomed! I agree they are cheery and always make me think of Spring and Easter. Lovely flowers they are.
