The Daffodil

 

Wandering around the garden looking for inspiration I noticed the Daffodils growing in our garden or at least starting to grow. I noticed them poking their heads up back in January and thought it would not be long before they would be in bloom. I thought it would be good to show the various stages of a daffodil.

Just out of the ground, you can see the flower head in the middle

A little taller now and the head it growing well
Reaching up for the sky
The bending over to look around
Start shedding the outer sheath 
and open the head
And there we are.
That it more of less how a daffodil grows
The photos were taken of a few different daffodils that were growing here a week or so ago, this picture was taken today and nearly all of them are in flower.

Oh yes, it looks just like spring, but then we have to wait a couple months.
