{Winter Blooming Fragrant Daffodils!}


What a surprise for having a little vase with winter blooming fragrant daffodils! This photo is from January 7 and they were already blooming in our garden for a full week, before we brought them inside. So again, love to share them with you, sans frangrance, as I cannot capture that on camera.

They are small but oh so pretty. Look how they shimmer in the sun light!
Proudly they show themselves on January 7! Unreal for the time of year...
Any winter bloomer is welcomed with open arms as it brightens one's day!
Here they are on December 30, still in our garden...
These daffodils start out as pure white beauties with a yellow corona (trumpet)...

    Oh my goodness!!! I love this and was peeking around my own garden this past week to see my own daffodils and tulips showing their tips throw the dirt.

    I guess you are a little further south than I am so I will have to wait a bit more.

    Thank you for brightening my day Mariette!

    Dear Mariette,

    I hope that the new year is off to a wonderful start! Thank you so much for the beauty that you share—such a nice range, and always something to appreciate. As for today's post, how lucky you are to have such bright and cheerful flowers—very fresh for this time of year...

    Wishing you a lovely Thursday.

    Warmly,

    Hoi Nichtjelief,

    Wat mooi he!! Zeker in de winter is ieder bloemetje welkom!

    Maar dit is bij jullie dus ook niet normaal??
    Hier bloeien ook al crocussen en sneeuwklokjes en ook de primula's. Maar de narcisjes zijn nog niet zo ver!

    Kom ik toch gewoon die van jou bewonderen!!

    Liefs Thea ♥

    Heel mooi gefotografeerd, Mariette. Kan niet wachten om ze hier te verwelkomen. De eerste bollen piepen al voorzichten uit de aarde, het weer is zo zacht geweest. Dit weekend wordt vorst verwacht..

    Fijne donderdag xxxx

    Hallo mariette,
    da glitzern die Blütenblätter richtig vor Frische. Die sehen zauberhaft aus und duften bestimmt wunderbar. Schöne Bilder, auch wegen der schönen kleinen Silbervase.
    Liebe Grüße, Johanna

    Oh wat leuk een beetje voorjaarsgevoel geven die narcisjes! Het is bij jullie iets warmer dan bij ons denk ik, zit net beetje tegen middellandse zeeklimaat aan en landklimaat, de nachten zijn nog koud!Toch bloeide er gisteren een roos die weliswaar beschut staat.

    Groetjes Janny

    The are truly a breathe of sunshine!! Even if only on my computer screen, it brings me happiness that they are real and you are able to enjoy their beauty (and fragrance). Everything here remains under a thin blanket of snow. And Mr. weather man is calling for winter's bitter cold and snow storm to arrive like a lion tomorrow. He (weatherman ) has been wrong before let's hope this is one of those times!!... Blessings, xo Celia (HHL)
