The week of the daffodils

This is the week the daffodils suddenly burst into bloom. The first was one of the miniatures I planted in the front garden, planning for more color and interest there in early spring.
 

Next up was a clump of these under the oak tree...
 

And now the King Alfreds (or Carltons?) in the cutting garden are starting to take off, too. Here they are plopped in a vase with some hellebores.

Daffodils? Sigh; not here yet, though the shoots are up and making some progress. Have been out cleaning up for a few days but rain is coming so chores will be put back on hold awhile longer tomorrow...
