Daffodils!

My daffodils are almost all out.

We have a roughly 60-foot-long front sidewalk, lined on both sides with daffodils that my grandmother planted. She passed away in 1990 at the age of 90, so most of the bulbs were planted between 25 and 40 years ago. I've thinned them a few times and distributed bulbs to other beds, and they'll need thinning again this year. All together, there are at least 6 or 7 different varieties in various shades of cream yellow and saffron. And they smell good, too!

Enjoy this bit of spring.

You clearly don't live in New Jersey, where our daffodils are still hiding underground - since spring refuses to show up! Send spring this way, will ya? :)
