Daffodils




Daffodils are another sure sign of spring. After Crocus, Daffodils and Hyacinth are the next bulbed flowers to bloom in the spring in the Northeast. While most Rhode Island gardens had Daffodils blooming a few weeks ago, ours just started blooming. That's due to our location in a cool valley where there are late frosts and cold snaps even when the rest of the state is warm. Because of this microclimate, many of our plants bloom days or even weeks later than the same plants just a couple of miles away!
