dwarf daffodil
Flowers are like redheads, every time I think I'm done another one entices me and before I know it I'm getting my camera out again.
Several years ago I planted daffodils (Narcissus) in my front yard and I love them cause when they bloom I know spring is right around the corner, they bloom before anything else. So a couple of weeks ago they were all in their glory and looking like yellow awesomeness. But the blooms don't last long and now they are shriveled up and looking sad. BUT!..I got home yesterday and notice an odd bit of yellow in a spot where there really shouldn't be and when I took a closer look I found it to be a dwarf daffodil growing under my crepe myrtle among all the garlic that is planted there. I've never seen a daffodil so small and I'm totally baffled as to how this thing came about. Now I have to be really careful when I pick my garlic (I use the shoots like green onions and of course the bulbs) cause daffodil is poisonous. That would suck!
Mid 70's here today, yeah baby! Way too nice to be working inside...
