Daffodils! Spring is here!

Spring is here.  the daffodils have been in full bloom for a while now.  I am putting up a few recent pictures of some of ours.  Daffodils are great flowers.  They are poison so the deer won't eat the blossoms and the gophers and moles won't eat the bulbs.  They multiply and come up year after year.  They do need some cooling hours so if you live in a warm climate, you will need to dig them up and put them in your freezer for a month each year and then replant them.  Fortunately, here in Grants Pass Real Estate we have a mild winter that is enough to make the daffodils and tulips bloom.
They come in a variety of colors from white to yellow to orange.  There are also double blooms and fancy blooms.  I have a few of those that are starting to bloom.  When they come out fully I'll put some more pictures up.
They are always cheerful flowers.  Just the thing for spring to brighten your day and bring a smile to your face.  So long for now from Grants Pass Real Estate.
