Morning everyone. daffodil Rip Off Van Winkle has made his yearly appearance in my garden. I hope he manages to keep his head up but I doubt it 🙄🤣💛 #daffodil-ripvanwinkle #daffodil-ripoffvanwinkle

I'm really disappointed with these daffodils in the back garden, all but one have come up blind and it looks like there aren't going to be many in the front garden either. They just flop all over anyway. I'll dig them out and get some different ones for next year 😔 #daffodil-ripvanwinkle

I'm with you Jane! I had some of these years ago and the first year they were abundant and cute as can be! The next year not one flower and then all the foliage was gone in about 3 years 😳 never bothered with those again!🤦‍♀️💘😍

Morning Jason 🙋‍♀️ It will be interesting to see how well yours flower as some of us are having a problem with these this year. We’re getting very few flowers and I’ve just checked back on mine and they’re nearly a month late too. Let me know how you get on with yours 🤔 @hebelover
