Daffodils

[srw]

I try to avoid deliberately poking my nose into daffodils wherever possible, you never know if there’s something nasty in there, waiting to bite you.

As long as you get consent first, there won't be. The narcissus dentatus is pretty much a myth.

how do the many clumps that we see here and there at the sides of our local lanes actually get there?

There's probably a simple answer I guess.

A mummy daffodil and a daddy daffodil love each other very much....

This site ruined them for me.

Is this the same as the Ukrainians who come here and eat our swans?

Substitute British for Ukrainians and daffodils for swans.

Boy the swear filter confusion makes this thread interesting.

Indeed. Do British or Ukrainians eat more daffodils?

Had a job on a daffodil farm - picked the wretched things for a season. Hard work and the sap was hard on the hands.

So are the Ukranians coming here to eat Daffodils, or Swans? I’m confused.

The definitive answer. Also local ‘Bloom Village’ volunteers put a lot into banks, greens etc. And of course natural propagation means the clumps get bigger.

In my local village I am petitioning for an outright cull on these pesky village guerillas making the place all happy and smily. At the very least, vaccinate against all the pent up happiness they have been harbouring all winter.

They sound like a bunch of Narcissus-ists!
