Delicious Daffodils

Daffodils, by far, are my absolute favorite flower! They're the "official" flower of my birth month - March- so that may be a reason i'm so attracted to them. Actually, it's about daffs being the first large blooms to show up around here! i like collecting different forms and color combinations - no expensive bulbs - the brand new varieties i can't afford today will be plentiful and reasonably priced in a year or two (same goes for Hostas!).

I just plant a few "new to me" varieties each Autumn. There are white, yellow, and orange flowers, and even more colors and shapes of the corollas (the center cup ) - pink, red, small, large trumpets, split, ruffled, double ( the doubles have the most fragrance).

Here's a tiny one






...Take a walk around my garden to see how many others i have!










Here's a peach and white form

Most of the "pink" corollas are orange at first and fade to a pink in a day or two.

All Daffodils are Narcissus, but not all Narcissus are Daffodils!

(All Daffodils, Narcissus, and Jonquils are in the genus Narcissus).







Nothing says "Springtime" like Daffs glowing in bright sunshine!

Last but not least, a split corona form
