3. Alas, my dear Andy, they have no scent as far as I can tell!

But I certainly do appreciate them.

And yours is a great idea!

I really love seeing these bloom every year. And yes, they are in my yard. These are visible from the living and dining rooms. There's a huge lorapetulum that I see from my study in the front yard. People out walking stop and stare at it when it's blooming.

It is such a treat.

The daffodils are definitely worth the wait!

You will surely have spring soon.

12. It must be hard waiting for May. But of course the trees count.

I love the new pale yellow-green leaves as they emerge. Glorious and translucent!

I wanted to get underneath the flowers for a different sort of view, and I did that since they grow in a raised bed next to some stairs. I stood below them and that enabled me to get this shot.

I really appreciate your critique!
