Off on holiday and posting a quick pic whilst sitting at the airport. these daffs opened last weekend and just as I go so are my alliums and loads of other plants. Oh well, will miss the garden but hopefully they will still be there when I get back. Hope they have wifi where I'm going 🤔....

The last clump off my daffs almost ready to flower - glad I picked some nice varieties to extend the daffodil season over a couple of months. These ones are naturally late flowering.

First daffs done - I'm a bit late in planting as I should have got these in the ground last month. Pheasant's Eye is lovely species Narcissus, very fragrant. 👃🏼

Oh wow, @kathy - they must have looked amazing on mass 😊. Hoping for a good display here too!

I grow these in my lawn, they are lovely plants. They don't like their bulbs being out of the ground for long so don't be too surprised if you get a poor show the first year.

Yes, you might be right @tiggrx . I was also a bit surprised when I opened the packet as they were not the greatest quality. Had to throw quite a few away. But staying optimistic for the remaining ones. Fingers crossed!
