First Daffodils of the Year
January 23rd, 2005 by Kathy Purdy · No Comments
Ah, just what I’ve been waiting for. Doug Welch has posted a picture of his first daffodils for this year. But I’d like to know where our Texas gardeners are. Usually by now Zanthan Gardens has narcissus up. I know I have just about swooned over her photos of narcissus in past years. So good to see these flowers that convey the essence of spring on so many levels while the snow is drifted high outside. It helps one hang on until Spring arrives on one’s own doorstep, about the time Texans are harvesting their first tomatoes!

About Kathy Purdy
Kathy Purdy discovered the joys of writing in fourth grade, when she started corresponding with a former classmate. She's been writing letters ever since, first on looseleaf, then electronically, and now as weblog entries. That makes you, the blog reader, her pen pal. Her first independent (though frustrating) attempts at gardening were made in high school, though the gardening bug didn't bite hard until her mid-thirties, when she found herself mistress of a rural home on 15 acres. •
