She died when I was 7 but I'll never forget how much she loved her Daffodils and how excited she got about their arrival the last spring she was alive.

I have heard that someone in the family, probably my aunt, has some of her bulbs still. Not sure what variety or how that's even possible. But it was lovely to hear. I even thought about trying to get a hold of some. Then I remembered I have a brown thumb and decided it was a mortifyingly bad idea!

I inherited this house from my aunt and uncle. The Daffs just keep dividing and spreading, so I keep thinning them.

My niece is going to move into my late mother's house so when I thin these, this year, we're going to plant some bulbs at that house.

Thank you, for sharing that picture. The bi-colored ones have a character all their own.

The miniature daffodils in my yard bloomed in late February. They are a solid bright yellow and only 5-6 inches tall, including flowering stems and their leaves.
