Spring.
This year, my garden has daffodils, tulips, and roses
At this time (December 2013), there is no indication that daffodils are transgenic plants.
Of course. Carpets of daffodils are not an uncommon sight in the north of England in the spring.
The line "Fair daffodils, we weep to see thee haste away so soon" is from the poem "To Daffodils" by Robert Herrick. The poem praises the beauty and brevity of daffodils and serves as a reminder to appreciate the fleeting nature of life.
I don't know where you are, but the daffodils bloomed early in January down in NE Georgia as well. It's been a warm winter, so the daffodils got an early start because of the rise in soil temperature told them it was time. Normally we see the wild type daffodil flowers on Valentine's Day, with the culivars following no later than the first of March. Back in 1996 it stayed cold all the way through March, and our first daffodils that year bloomed on April 26th.
In reality, William Wordsworth did actually see the daffodils that he wrote the poem about when he was on a walk around Glencoyne Bay, Ullswater in the Lake District of England in 1802. The poem was published in 1807 and revised in 1815. The poem gives the location as "A host of dancing Daffodils; Along the Lake, beneath the trees," and there you have it.
Daffodils grow from bulbs. Daffodils are spring blooming flowers. They will bloom early in the season, around the same time that tulips bloom.
Daffodils, forsythia.
Because they are
The Daffodils was written by William Wordsworth in the year 1804.
Daffodils can live for several years, typically blooming for 2-4 weeks each year. With proper care and maintenance, they can persist for many seasons in the garden. Some varieties may even naturalize and spread over time.
Daffodils typically bloom in the early spring, usually between March and May, depending on the location and weather conditions.
