Daffodil White LionWinds and rains are blowing in from the west-the mild quarter. In between the showers the sun is warm enough to encourage rapid growth. The seedlings I sowed indoors last week are well through now and in the garden , summer perennials are pushing through the layer of mulch I spread on the beds. Pink peony shoots, ripe with the promise of rich flowers, fresh green poppy leaves.
The daffodils are at their finest right now. Particularly fine are the variety "White Lion" , manes glittering in the sunshine and sweet of scent.

Lovely, Judith! Have a great weekend...
That daffodil is spectacular. What a lovely, lemony splash of spring. :)
The white lion daffodil is stunning, not a variety I have come across, I really love it. I have peonies in my garden, and I like them at the pink shoot stage, more than when they are in full bloom! x
Beautiful daff. Not even a crocus up here yet (Rochester NY).
Is that thing as big as it looks?! I mean is it actually as big as a baby's head?
That is lovely. Great job!
Kimberley-the flowers are about 4 inches across, despite the appearance. Large for daffodil, but not enormous.
