They're the major sign of spring here at our house. Their bright yellow flowers are just like sunshine after a long cold winter. While they're not all in full bloom yet, they are quickly getting there!
It was a glorious April morning here yesterday, sunny and bright. Still cold but it warmed up enough that I was able to ride home from the library in the afternoon without freezing!
Out back the first two Daffodils are blooming, but they're all looking bright yellow.
Mrs. F.G. planted these at the front corner of the house. I can't see them, but she got a picture for me.
After physiotherapy I went down to the library, and outside found these Daffodils. It's not often I'm able to get this close to a blooming flower!
And this morning our little patch of Daffodils out back is looking ever more yellow. Hurray for spring; I'll be able to be out riding for the next six months!
A grand time of the year, new flowers, warmer days, and riding out down the streets for you, those golden flowers are glorious.I always think of Wordsworth and his poem when they bloom.Will you have a crowd or a host " At our other home before we moved here, we had hundreds, planted by the previous owner.Then my father in law planted so many down the fence line. Interesting fact, I read somewhere that daffodil stalks do not get eaten by the stock in paddocks?? Maybe Stew you might know more about this and why.
ReplyDeleteI wandered lonely as a cloud, ...
Deletewhen all at once I saw a crowd,
a host of golden Daffodils,
beside the lake, beneath the trees,
fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
Daffodils are certainly a sunny sign of spring.
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen any here yet, but I imagine that some are probably out too.
ReplyDeleteA sure sign of spring. A happy flower.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I'm so envious! I need to plant more, my minis haven't bloomed yet. So bright and joyful!
ReplyDeleteYay! Great news. And the daffodils are beautiful too.
ReplyDeleteThey sure are pretty. Yellow is a wonderful bright color, isn't it?
ReplyDeleteVery pretty, and such a lovely sign of spring!
ReplyDeleteHappy for you!
ReplyDeleteSpring has definitely taken a turn for the 'warmer and wonderful'. Love those regular 'old fashioned' daffs the best.
It seems to have been a good year for Daffodils. I'm glad.
ReplyDeleteYay! They are just gorgeous. So glad you got out to see them.
ReplyDeleteyou are surrounded by "sunshine", your daffodils are gorgeous!! they appear to be reaching for the sun!!
ReplyDeleteIn a few years you'll probably have hundreds of daffodils, they sure do proliferate.
