    I took these pictures back in early March. It's just taken me a long time to get them posted. They are the bulbs I got at half price from Home Depot. I planted them just before Christmas.

    I must have had about 40 or 50 or them. The freesia that I planted at the same time didn't do so well. They came up early and froze off a couple of times and only about a dozen bloomed. Maybe they will do better next year. Or I will get some more and put in there.

    Nice daffodils. Can't have too many pretty yellow flowers. Because we live in shade over the years our pretty yellow flowers have diminished significantly. Time to buy some more daffodils.

    Cheerful-looking daffs, Dooley.
    That was too bad about your freesia's. Darn! Like you say, maybe next year better.
    I wonder if you planted them at the right time. I find it somehow a bit odd that they should be coming up and blooming now. Hmmmm.

    Lovely daffodils Dooley. In a few years they will be all over the place. I have that kind in my yard also.

    Fabulous daffodils! I am interested in daffodils as I am currently planting some bulbs for customers.
