Looking forward to daffodils

I'm looking forward to daffodils. Here I'm posting just a few of my many daffodil photos taken over the years.

Daffodils in the garden of Brockstone Grasmere Cottage.


The Lake District is famous for its daffodils. William Wordsworth's most famous poem, Daffodils is known the world over. Wordsworth owned my house, and he wrote his poetry half a mile along the lane at Dove Cottage.

We're just over a month from the Winter Solstice, and the days are getting just a little longer. Buds are pushing up through the soil at Brockstone Grasmere Cottage. Our Lake District cottage might just be your perfect holiday cottage. In March, the garden is absolutely bursting with daffodils.
