Daffodils

Two toned daffodils. Note the hosta sprouting up next to the flowers.

I posted three weeks ago about mini daffodils blooming in the garden. After a frost Thursday night and a chilly, rainy Saturday, I was ready for some sunshine and warm temps. Little did I know (or the weatherman for that matter who predicted on and off rain with cloudy skies) that today would be the first 70 degree day of the year with lots of blue skies. I took pictures of daffodils blooming because they seemed to capture the spirit of such a nice day.

Daffodils should be planted in the fall for spring flowers. They are easy to care for and unlike other bulbs, squirrels don't like them and won't eat them, although they have been known to dig them up. There will grow in all parts of the US and are inexpensive so plan to plant some more in your garden this fall.
