    [​IMG] I think some of my Daffodils have had a head fit... I don't know what they think they are up to, They have come though already & have flower buds on them..?? They are not as big as normal... :confused: [​IMG]
    They are part of etablished clumps that do flower well, but even so..! The rest are all behaving normally, just these couple of clumps are getting ready to flower. They are in quite exposed positions too. The ones by the greenhouse have a little protection, but the others don't have any.. :confused:

    Any ideas anyone, as to what they think they are up to & why????? :confused:
    Or are they just nuts like the gardener...?? :D

    Yes it is a bit out of sorts but hopefully this cold winter will put things back to normal. I have to say that my father had some Daffs that every so often would do the same and in fact actually flower before Christmas. He used to get very excited about this!

    [​IMG] Well, not sure if I am excited, but now they don't seem to have changed since I put the post up. To add to it we had quite a hard frost last night so shall watch them to see what happens. Will let you know if they flower in the near future. Thanks. [​IMG]
