Beautiful flowers in Italy we call them “Narcisi”.
Gorgeous photos! My daffodils are just beginning to poke out of the ground. I have hundreds of them all around my backyard. i love how they brighten the otherwise dreary landscape.
Here’s a project for a rainy day: rename your photos based on the name of the daffodil in the photo and they will turn up in google image search.
Thanks for the reminder Alea – I thought I’d gotten good about that, but I think this post had so many photos I just chugged them in. I should update it. Mine are up as well – some paperwhites planted a few years ago in a warm spot have bloomed, but I’m waiting on the rest.
Amazing flowers. I used to live near a town called Bell Buckle in Tenn. Every spring they held Daffy-Dilly Days in honor of thousands of flowers that grew along the road leading into town. It was a gorgeous drive.
Tara – Ironstone Vineyards here hosts Daffodil Days and they’ve lined the road to that winery with daffodils. Also “Daffodil Hill” is kinda famous in California and is out by me (but I’ve not gone! It is a drive and I can see so many closer home with more variety). http://www.google.com/search?q=daffodil+hill+ca&hl=en&rlz=1T4SKPB_enUS357US359&prmd=imvns&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=zZpBT675DemgiQLIk_GXAQ&ved=0CEwQsAQ&biw=1375&bih=690 Hmn might have ot grab the camera and plan a drive there next month in time for the show.
Beautiful “narcissi” but I also adore crocusses, tulips, daffodils, and hyacinths.
Here the critters munch tulips like pigs do truffles – have to plant them in cages which is too much work for me. Your climate is perfect for crocusses which are such a fun early spot of color. Mine come back about 50% the following year after planting and dwindle sharply after that. I tried them but they’re just not as happy here (I do have some in pots knowing it may be a “one time deal” but, hey, a bunch of flowers costs about the same as a pack of bulbs – I’ll take bulbs anytime.
Have a friend who’s favorite flower is hyacinths – I’m a daffy girl.
I could have quite happily sat and looked at these all day. Daffodils are my favourite flower EVER, thank you for brightening my day with these.

My Eyes have just experienced a Magnificant Feast.
Thank you for that !!! X
It is no wonder that Narcissus could not stop gazing at himself. What an abundance of beauty!
I had to smile as I’d forgotten to associate the myth with the flower – Thanks!
What a lovely taste of spring this post is! Gorgeous photographs – thank you for sharing them!
