Before the snow!



Just had to take a photo of my pot of mini daffs before they get flattened by all the snow that is forecast tomorrow. These tend to flower before the standard sized ones so they are more vulnerable to bad weather.  For a non-gardener like myself, it seems little short of a miracle that they pop up every year, despite the neglect with which they’re treated. I love the blue/yellow combination, which I find so cheering after the long dark winter months. The blooms don’t last long so I make sure to enjoy them while I can, and each year brings more of them as the bulbs proliferate. Hurray for daffodils! (Just trying to think of a way I could protect them against the snow but I can’t really… Put a bucket over them? Do you think that would work?)
