It's so lovely to have daffodils in the house again. These aren't from my garden, but are being sold locally in aid of the Marie Curie charity, which I do support.
The daffodils in the garden are in bud and it won't be too long before there is a little glow of gold. I have so many groups of the little Tete a Tete daffodils which are showing their first little leaves.
This will hopefully be the scene in Trelissick Gardens very soon.
At the moment the gardeners are focussing on the devastation caused by last week's storm, when so many of the huge ancient trees were blown out of the ground.
We do need the joys of Spring, daffodils, snowdrops, crocus, the posy of fresh colours to cheer us.

It is so sad about these ancient trees. Daffodils always give us the hope of Spring and a smile, too.
Beautiful Daffodils!! Mine are just peeking up through the soil now. I think the cold weather has caused them to pause but they'll be shooting up as soon as we get some warmer temps.
The yellow flowers of spring are so cheering. I used to love coming to Cornwall in time for your early Spring, and returning home to experience it all over again as we were always a few weeks behind.
I love the daffodils! So cheery
I can no longer go shopping so rely on weekly grocery deliveries. For the last 3 weeks I have been adding a bunch of 'in bud' daffodils to my order from Sainsbury's - costing £1 a bunch. Best bargain ever in these dark gloomy days!!!
It's so sad when mature trees get destroyed!
A bunch of yellow daffodils is a cheerful sight indoors while outside is rather bleak and grey.
The daffodils are so pretty, unlike the storm damage in your area. It's hard to see stately trees unrooted from the ground. Enjoy your pretty flowers!
Oh no! More old trees gone. I'm so sorry! Indeed we need flowers to cheer us up, especially in such times 🙏🫂🕯️
Daffodils are sold here for our Cancer Society. Harvey usually purchases one or two packages for me. They should be available next month.
Sorry about the storm damage and the loss of the beautiful old trees.
God bless.
So sad for the loss of those ancient trees!
With you, I am looking forward to the return of the daffodils, although I think we'll have a longer wait here. I will have to check my grocery store . . .
Before I left there were a lot of trees down after the storm. I may see the garden daffodils when I go home now I am in Summer!
Sad about the trees. I love daffodils for their flowers but don't' like their smell!
The daffodils are gorgeous! They have always been one of my favorite flowers.
Daffodils cheer us up ! I do wish the rain would stop !
Lovely to see the daffodils, another sign that Spring is on the way. So sad that all those trees were lost in the storms. Hopefully more trees will be planted but it will be many years before they reach the maturity of those lost.
