#daffodils

7 posts7 participants2 posts today

New and replanted bulbs update. More crocuses have sprouted and maybe one of the daffodil bulbs they are planted on top of. This is the last to bloom daffodil spot. The circle of daffodils in the warm area are mostly up but none in the cool circle. One daffodil in a container is up a little. The snowdrops are done blooming.

This week's featured poem on the Grammaticus blog is "I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud" by William Wordsworth - a wonderful ode to #daffodils

This poem speaks to me on a deeply intimate level. When I was a boy, a person very dear to me – my great-grandmother – passed away one springtime. Devastated by the sense of loss, I remember spending a lot of time in our backyard garden and sitting among the daffodils, telling them about my sadness. They were very good listeners!

Maybe I was just a weird kid, or maybe I saw in those golden flowers something that Wordsworth also recognized: their power to transform grief into joy.

My little daffodil patch has put on quite a display this year. So cheery! These started out as a single stray daffodil that volunteered in our lawn (no idea where it came from - a bird must have planted it). I carefully transplanted it under the tree, and the patch has continued spreading since then.
