I have snowdrops and crocus, but where are the daffodils??
I have been keeping garden notes since 1996 and this is the first spring that I have not had daffodils blooming by April 1. The earth may be warming, but that’s sure not the case in my garden. (I am not a climate change denier, just an impatient gardener.)
In 2013 which also had a cold miserable winter, at least by April 1 I had a few tete a tete daffodils (small bright yellow miniatures which are usually the first to bloom). In 2012, (in addition to snowdrops, crocus and tete a tete) I had ice follies daffodils, scilla , chionodoxa, anemone blanda, a few hyacinth, hellebores, and my forsythia and magnolia stellata were beginning. This was generally the pattern since I started keeping detailed records.
I am so impatient for the show to to begin!!!
