TETE A TETE DAFFODILS - A joy to behold

I'm off to a slow start this year with my gardening and my blog has been neglected. In fairness, we have had such heavy rainfall over winter that my soil has been like wet lead and not only that but I've felt like lead and not up to doing the chores.  But I am getting a move on now, little by little.  I bought some Tete a Tete daffodils a week or so ago, eight bulbs in a pot.  After taking the photographs, I put the pot on the outside kitchen window bottom.  It's wonderful to see their bright little faces through the glass.

Since buying this pot, I have bought three more pots of Tete a Tete daffodils.  The thing is, Tete a Tetes don't grow tall and so are not so susceptible to strong winds knocking their heads off.  Also, one bulb will provide more than one flower stem with often two flowers on the stem.  They really are a must in my garden.  When they have finished flowering, the bulbs will be planted out into my garden borders.  They'll jolly up the garden next spring.
