They are such a joy.

Oh the joy of seeing smiling daffodils, I can't wait! I'll check the supermarkets tomorrow.
Wasn't it one of the impressionist painters who said something like, there are daffodils (??) everywhere for those who want to see?

Found some! In Aldi today, British grown, 98p.

They has tulips too but those seem to be available most of the year somehow.

I love having daffs in the house after Christmas and for as long as in season. They are such a cheerful colour and brighten the place up.

No daffs in my local stores yet but they’ve had tulips for sale since October!

Once Christmas is over, I like to buy cut daffodils (even though I hate yellow) and hyacinths in pots to lift the dark days.
No daffs in my Sainsbury’s yet.

Every year I buy a bunch of daffs from the supermarket to have in the house at Christmas time. No idea why, it's just something I do.
This year I'm not at home and hadn't given it a thought, but then I saw some early daffs in a garden. I looked in the supermarkets but no daffs to be had .
Is it just here they are missing or is it a more general disappearance? Anyone know where the missing daffs are?
