Just confused daffodils.
The daffs are not confused. They will flower next year. Don't expect them to grow during the summer. That is their dormant season, right?
Just catching up with themselves I should think f rose. They'd already prepared themselves for this year during last year. Does that make sense?
They'll be on time next year
In the sticks near Peterborough
Ditto experiences here with 200+ 'very late planted' daffs etc - they're flowering now just as the tulips are finishing! Must be said that the slugs just love the challege of ascending the 2' stems to 'sample' the buds!! Urggh!!
mine are just coming into flower which is so odd, so I have daffodils with the sweetpeas .
